CushingCushingCushing is a very small town located in the northwestern part of Wisconsin. It is in Polk County. The population of Cushing is around 200 people.
Historically, the Cushing area has been populated with dairy farmers. Now, there is a mixture of factory workers, professionals, service workers, and others. There are quite a few residents that make the 50-80 mile commute to the Twin Cities (Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN) area for work.
The area around Cushing is quite scenic with rolling hills, hardwood trees, and open farm land. Several lakes and rivers are scattered throughout the area for fishing and wildlife.
Cushing is still real small, but its proximity to the Twin Cities, recent addition of city sewer, and possible development of subdivisions within a few miles of town signal a period of growth coming for Cushing.
