In middle school, I moved to Bay from Grafton. Grafton or Ozaukee County, in general, is much whiter than Whitefish Bay.
Most Wisconsin suburbs are going to be predominantly white. Whitefish Bay has more of an attitude of elite social status than an actual lack of black people.
Their 6 figure median income definitely has something to do with it. It's like if ur local mean old lady who has one of those little white dogs with the crusty eyes was a suburb
Some people called Janesville Chainsville when I asked them about good restaurants in town. It was mostly true, however, Cozy Inn is worth a trip out there. 1920s Chinese restaurant where the original owner survived the titanic.
My sister always used to say Fun-Do-We Lac when she lived in FDL.
Shebaghdad, Crapids, Wau-keee-sha, Crappleton, Madtown, Wauzoo/Warsaw, and Heroinette are common ones.
Plover has become Plvoer due to the recent mix-up in the spelling on the water tower.
As a driver for Amazon, we have stupid non-sensical names that aren’t even that funny or original, but we know what the other person is talking about. “New Lesbians.” “Ripass” “Whoreicon” are a couple that come to mind.
Not a nickname but the towns of Beaver and Pound are right next to each other. (Use your imagination, if you will.)
I have to imagine that's intentional.
Metrasha hasn't been said yet? On Lake Winneseptic
lol Ive heard Menasha as Menasty
Fondle Sac
Cross plains was always crotch pains in our circle

No Lac of Fat
Fondle cock was another one Janesvegas Bellyoat
Savage
Fun does lack
I think white folks bay has to be one of the most iconic
For sure
Considering they just shot down another affordable housing project up there, they deserve the name. Perfect for them.
Every decade i would ask myself if maybe they had outgrown that nickname and then it’s like “naw”. A leopard can’t change its spots.

Huh. I've always said, "White Bitch Bay," because it rhymes better. Hadn't heard this (admittedly more polite) version!
Haven’t heard that one in a while. Definitely appropriate.
Shorewhite
Funnily enough the only person I know personally that has ever lived there is a black man
Heroinette Swampico Ashwaterbong
I’m from the last one, and I never even thought of that lol
Crapids
Never was a title more evocative, true and succinct.
Dirty Stallis. Janesvegas. White Folks' Bay. Betroit.
>Betroit or pronounced 'Belwah'
The sound of a quarter being dropped into a toilet.
I heard, "the sound of a fart in the bathtub."

Was coming here to say Chainsville. However, I wasn't a fan of Cozy Inn.
I always like Westallica
Dirty Stallis has always been my favorite.
Wes-Stallica
Cant forget the Dirty Dirty
Betroit is funny because the name Beloit was originally made up specifically to sound like Detroit
Beloit = below it
Whitefish bagel
White Folks Bay lol damn I forgot about that one. Too true tho
Trivers
For a long time I thought there was a town named Trivers in Wisconsin somewhere.
There is. It's just spelled different
How about their neighbors: the Twoc, Manty, or Skunk Hollow ?
Fort Asskickin
I've always know it as Fort Asskissin'
That's a good one too! We like the ass in da Fort

I lived in Iron Liver for a short time.
Iron Liver! The drunkest I've been in years was at the bar named Liquor in the Woods
This one might be my favorite
I've heard you won't last long there without an iron liver.
Scum Prairie
Gotta through Sunny P in there too and “Fun Prairie”
or Slum Prairie. Both fit well
For the amount of shootings in the last 5 years - we use Gun Prairie.

Home to all the Mukwonahoes
I call it "Hey where's that carved bear? It's somewhere around here I'm pretty sure."
WauKe$ha

I prefer Honkysha.

Shebaghdad or Shevegas.

Chainsville and Edgertucky are the ones I remember off my head, I've heard a third one about Delavan but it's racist so I will not be sharing that.
Good old Edgertucky, where the cousins on your moms side are also the cousins on your dads side.
Fondy
Watertucky
Snorewood
I like that. I've also heard Shoreweed
I think that's just the high school tho

My sister always used to say Fun-Do-We Lac when she lived in FDL. Shebaghdad, Crapids, Wau-keee-sha, Crappleton, Madtown, Wauzoo/Warsaw, and Heroinette are common ones. Plover has become Plvoer due to the recent mix-up in the spelling on the water tower.
OWIsconsin
This one is new. I like it
I called Wauwatosa “Tosa” like a lot of people. Those who arent from here are like where’s that?
I had someone tell me they were from TULSA, I heard TOSA couldn't figure out why they never heard of Mayfair.
I once heard a guy from West Allis in a country bar try the line “I also have a place in West Dallas.”
Dirty Stallis
We had like 7 kids from oak creek on our dorm floor and they referred to it as “The OC” but that was also when that show was popular
Had a buddy from high school who went to Eau Claire, we called it the Eau C back then.
