Princeton draws people who like river towns with plenty to do. Set along the Fox River, residents spend weekends paddling quiet backwaters, fishing, and browsing the famous Princeton Flea Market at Princeton City Park. From May to October, this open-air tradition anchors a lively calendar that also includes concerts and seasonal festivals. Nature lovers head minutes out of town to White River Marsh Wildlife Area and Grand River Marsh Wildlife Area for birding, hunting, and expansive prairie-and-wetland vistas, while city amenities and services are easy to access through the City of Princeton.
Families appreciate the Princeton School District for its close-knit campuses, small class sizes, and Pirates athletics and arts, plus dual-credit and extracurricular options. The Princeton Public Library offers maker programs, storytimes, and a well-used community meeting space that keeps the calendar full year-round.
Housing ranges from historic riverside homes and tidy in-town bungalows to acreage on the edge of the marsh. Day-to-day life is centered on Water Street’s cafes and boutiques, with big-lake recreation, dining, and golf in nearby Green Lake, employment hubs in Berlin, and collegiate energy in Ripon. County services and courts are organized through Green Lake County and supported by the county’s official website.
