Janesville is a city in southern Wisconsin, often called the "City of Parks" for its abundance of green spaces. Founded in 1835, it grew rapidly during the industrial revolution, particularly due to the presence of the General Motors assembly plant, which operated for decades before closing in 2008. The city’s economy is now diversified, with significant contributions from healthcare, education, and retail sectors. The downtown area is a blend of historic buildings, local shops, and restaurants. Janesville is home to over 2,500 acres of parkland, including Rockport and Palmer Parks, which provide various recreational activities such as hiking, boating, and picnicking. The Rock River also adds to the city's outdoor charm, offering opportunities for fishing and kayaking. Janesville has a strong education system, with public schools and the University of Wisconsin-Rock County. The city also hosts cultural events like the Janesville Farmer's Market and Art in the Park. Despite challenges after the GM plant closure, Janesville has focused on revitalization, economic growth, and community development.
