Take the 608 Demographic Survey

Happy New Year, Madisonians. To start the year off on the right foot, we need a little help from you.

Every morning, more than 42,000 of you welcome us into your inbox. And each day, we do our very best to provide you with timely, relevant information so you can get the most out of the city we call home.

We’re asking you to take two minutes to tell us a little more about yourself because the more we know about who you are, the better we can deliver information that you care about. Just two minutes. Feel free to skip any questions you don’t want to answer. We don’t want to pry. (Okay, we do, but for a good reason.)

We’ll be selecting one lucky survey participant to win $500. We’re rooting for you, 608.

Thanks in advance for your feedback,

— Ally + Jonathan

Recycling the holidays in Madison

The DNR is asking Wisconsinites to reduce holiday waste this year. Here are a few recycling tips to keep in mind:

♻️ Do recycle:

Flattened cardboard boxes
Wrapping paper sans glitter
Emptied aluminum cans

🚯 Don’t recycle:

Holiday light strings
Tissue paper
Plastic film/wrap

🎄 Trees

The City of Madison will do two rounds of holiday tree collection:

Round One: Tuesday, Jan. 2-Friday, Jan. 12
Round Two: Tuesday, Jan. 16-Friday, Jan. 26

The city will turn the trees into mulch, so residents must remove any unnatural material (Think: decorations).

Note: If your tree isn’t placed on the curb by Tuesday, Jan. 2, it may not be collected until Round Two. If your tree isn’t on the curb by Tuesday, Jan. 16, it may not be collected until spring.

Missed both deadlines? Feel free to bring your tree to a drop-off site near you.

From the editor

And we’re back! I hope everyone enjoyed and/or survived the holidays. I spent my week off eating, drinking, and watching too much Bravo. Speaking of Bravo, the new season of “Top Chef” — highlighting Madison, Milwaukee, and Door County cuisine — is expected to air in March. Check out the r/TopChefWisconsin subreddit for some inside scoops.
