  JS Online: Up North, upscale
Wisconsin's North Woods, longtime mecca of rustic lake cabins and serviceable trailers on wooded acreages, is upscaling rapidly as the world-weary affluent seek suburbia-styled solace in the pine-scented outdoors.
That broadly defined North Woods area also is experiencing nearly double the property value growth rate as Wisconsin overall - 12.1% vs 6.5% last year, the private non-profit government research group found.
While the hunting and fishing afficionados, Wisconsin's traditional North Woods second home buyers, are more likely to rub elbows with the Starbucks and SUV set, they have not been driven from the market, Crubaugh said.

They've filmed addicts shooting up and breaking into cars to support their habit, and they've trekked to the much-publicized Cannabis Cafe -- until the police shut it down.
A centerpiece is the city's supervised injection center, where addicts can shoot up -- "We have almost 600 injections a day," said Campbell -- while also receiving health care and counseling on how to kick their habit.
Up north, it has required a major leap of intelligence.
