City of Superior: Where Lake Superior Meets Small-Town Shenanigans
Welcome to Superior, Wisconsin—where the lake is vast, the winters are relentless, and the local politics are somehow even frostier. Nestled at the tip of Lake Superior, we’re the gateway to Duluth’s slightly more chaotic cousin. Whether you’re here for the stunning waterfront, the rich industrial history, or just trying to figure out why half the city council is related, Superior’s got something for everyone.
Our community thrives on a unique blend of hard work, small-town pride, and the occasional political soap opera. From our quirky festivals to the endless debates over whose potholes are bigger, Superior never fails to keep things interesting. So grab a pasty, brave the wind off the lake, and come see why we call it Superior—mostly because “Almost Duluth” didn’t quite have the same ring.
