Waunakee, WI
Waunakee is a village in Dane County, Wisconsin, United States. The population was estimated at 16,165 in 2023. It is part of the Madison Metropolitan Statistical Area. Waunakee bills itself as "The Only Waunakee in the World".
Waunakee is located at 43°11′14″N 89°27′8″W (43.187253, −89.452244). According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 6.39 square miles (16.55 km2), of which 6.38 square miles (16.52 km2) is land and 0.01 square miles (0.03 km2) is water.
The village is bordered on the south and east by the town of Westport, to the north by the town of Vienna, the northwest by the town of Dane, and to the west by the town of Springfield. Six Mile Creek, the main waterway through the community, runs west to east before making a southerly turn through the village on its way to Lake Mendota.
When the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad wanted to expand its line from Madison to Saint Paul, a door was opened for the development of a town. The original location of the village was intended to be at Packham's Mill, about where Mill Road crosses the railroad track today, two miles southeast of today's downtown Waunakee. However, two local settlers, Louis Baker and George Fish, platted a village on their land two miles further northwest along the railroad. Railroad officials agreed to move a train depot to the new community in exchange for $1,500 and two miles of right of way. The village was founded in 1871 and formally incorporated in 1893. Baker and Fish did not want to take credit for naming the community, so they asked Simeon Mills and Mr. Hill of Madison to come up with a list. The name "Waunakee" has a Native American origin, meaning "fair and pleasant valley."
Robert F. Kennedy visited the village to campaign for his brother John for president in February 1960. Former First Lady Barbara Bush visited the village to campaign for her son George, for president in October 2000.
