Boaz. Small in size and big on character, this village sits amid the rolling hills of the Driftless Area in Richland County, just a quick drive from the shops, services, and cultural venues of Richland Center. Life here moves at a friendly pace: neighbors wave, kids ride bikes to the park, and weekends often start with a sunrise drive past oak ridges and dairy farms.
History buffs know Boaz for the Boaz Mastodon, discovered in 1897 and commemorated at the local park; you can dig deeper into the story through the Wisconsin Historical Society’s detailed overview of the Boaz Mastodon site. Outdoor lovers find plenty to explore, from trout streams and backroads perfect for scenic cycling to paddling and birding along the Lower Wisconsin State Riverway, an easy hop near Muscoda. Day-trip options abound, whether apple-orchard season in Gays Mills or a tour of Frank Lloyd Wright’s A.D. German Warehouse in nearby Richland Center.
Families appreciate access to the Richland School District, which offers a well-rounded slate of academics, arts, and athletics while maintaining small-school attention. For broader amenities—farmers markets, healthcare, and regional festivals—residents often point toward Viroqua and other Driftless communities, yet return home to Boaz for quiet nights and star-filled skies.
