The city and county have been working towards growth opportunities. For example, the upgraded rock county jail and potential GM land use.

Where do you see this city in 5 years? Do you think the growth will be sustainable, even with rising costs?

Does anyone know one local? Or near atleast

Am I missing something or does Janesville not have a good Asian grocery store? I feel like this city is diverse enough that it should. If you have a spot in the area, please share because I need to grocery shop.

It was freezing out yesterday. -30° wind chill. I ordered groceries and met my driver at the door. He told me I was the first out of 10 offers that had a tip. Really? Wow. If you order groceries or take out, tip your driver. It's horrible outside. They are doing you a service Janesville.

I’m taking a big step to make a difference in our community by starting an independent, unbiased local news agency. My goal is simple: to keep our town well-informed and safe by reporting on the stories that matter most, free from bias or hidden agendas.

Hello folks! My girlfriend and I are driving to Janesville today from Chicago and wanted to know the snow situation on the streets/roads. We have never driven before on snowy streets or slippery roads and wanted to know how our drive is gonna be for next 2 days.

Thanks in advance

hi all,

i'm currently in wisconsin (new to the state, enjoying it so far) but when i originally signed my lease, it ended up being shorter than a year, which is what was originally advertised. i was okay with it because i was desperate to find something so i could be here in november. i'll be moving from another city but i want to be in janesville.

anyway, so now, i don't want to end up in another situation where i feel like i'm "settling" so does anyone know of any *apartment complexes* or good rental companies? i know walker property management exists, as well as wisconsin property managers but anyone know of any complexes or other rental sites?

if you also know of any good sites besides: zillow, craigslist, apartmentguide, apartmentfinder, hotpads, zumper, etc. i've tried them all. 😭

thank you!! feel free to ask whatever you want.

Considering applying to be a transit operator with Janesville transit. Looking for feedback in general but there are any current drivers who can post too that would great TIA.

Title should say it all. What are the best mortgage lenders to work with around here? Looking to buy our first house, bonus points if they offer FHA loans. Thanks in advance! 🙏

I know they are still here but in hiding what have they been up to as of lately?

What do you like or dislike about the local bar scenes?

So just now, 7pm on Friday, I passed a county sheriff at Center and Kellogg. It was pulling a trailer with some sort of sled covered in Christmas lights? As it was/is dark and i have shitty vision, wtf did i just see?

Where do I look for rental properties?Which landlords are reputable? Or which rental places have a decent reputation? This feels like it's getting ridiculous. Craigslist is sketchy.

I have good condition red wing boots with met guard size 12 men’s for 100. Need the money for a fine which I guess is a pretty Janesville thing

Old home with brittle cloth wrapped wiring. Electric panel has been updated (prior to home purchase), so not a knob-and-tube system. Looking for an electrician to come and take a look and give us an idea of what it’ll cost to replace wiring and update.

Have family in the Janesville area and we are getting together for Christmas. They are thinking they want to go out somewhere to eat instead of cooking. Any ideas on restaurants open Christmas Day?

Hi All, I have some pics I shot on an SD Card. Is there any good place to take them to get prints made for a christmas present?

Hello Everyone!

I recently got hired for a job in Janesville. I currently live up in Middleton, but will be looking to Janesville either at the end of my lease, or when my hour long commute drives me insane. Whichever happens first. 😅 I'm not so much making this post to learn about things to do in the area, as I'm much of a homebody, but curious about my general safety. For reference, I am a trans woman, and while I do get the occasional odd glance and general feeling on unease when I'm out and about, Madison is probably the gayest city I've lived in, in my 25 years of life, so I've never felt particularly unsafe in public. I just wanted to get a general vibe check as to whether or not that kind of discrimination/danger is present in Janesville, and if so, to what degree. Any information helps, thanks!

Between Charlie's, Stokes and Park Place, why do they all close so early Sundays through Thursdays? Ever since Covid. I understand not all 3 being open, but they are losing so many people to sneakers, luckys, and Trashbags. One should try to be consistent with their hours.

How is this place still up and running? Is it truly a half way house or a hump and dump? We deserve answers..

There were a couple fire trucks and a number of police vehicles there around 10 pm.

Feel free to write down what you have been concerned about, and what you think should be the solution. What's been on your mind lately that you feel like the city could improve on? Do you have something to say, but can't get a straight answer. Feel free to it write down.
