Weather in Menominee: plan the website around it

Menominee weather, in normals: July highs around 84°F, January lows around 10°F, measured at Dubuque L&D, 6.9 miles away (1991-2020). Rain adds up to about 39 inches a year, falling on about 72 days with a tenth of an inch or more. The high reaches 90°F or more on about 18 days a year, and the low falls to freezing or below on about 133 days. Winter reshuffles demand: snow removal, heating and ice-dam repairs in the cold months, yard work and construction once it thaws. If you offer emergency or same-week service in bad weather, state it clearly and keep the contact form short.

Writing a website for Menominee residents

Jo Daviess County had 21,594 residents in 2025 and 10 incorporated municipalities. At the county level, where the estimates are more precise: the median household income is $73,993 and the median age is 51.5. 87.2% of households have broadband and 11.8% rely on a cellphone data plan alone. 80.4% of households own their home.

The businesses that compete for customers in Menominee

The Census counted 103 establishments with employees in 2023 in ZIP code 61025, which includes Menominee and its surroundings. Some of the businesses behind that number:

• Auto repair shops (8): the services you do, the makes you work on, your hours and a form to request an appointment.
• Site preparation contractors (3): the equipment you run, the kinds of jobs you take and a contact form for builders and owners.
• Full-service restaurants (6): the menu, hours, location and photos of the food, easy to read on a phone.

Jo Daviess County as a whole had 673 employer establishments in 2023 and another 1,948 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. Jo Daviess County has four times the national share of hotels, inns and other lodging: 22 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, travelers compare rooms, rates and location, so the website should show rooms with real photos, amenities, location and how to reserve by email or through your booking channel. The county also has a strong cluster of trucking companies (32 establishments, 2.3 times the national share). For any of them, a clear website is the difference between being compared and being skipped.
