Hot take: the Driftless is valuable precisely because it breaks the Midwest formula. No recent glacial bulldozer, no thick blanket of drift, so the old landscape is still there. Deep valleys, limestone springs, goat prairies, algific slopes, and river bluffs that make cabins cash flow.

Some investors avoid it because the parcels are oddly shaped and the soils change with every hill. I get it. But the same “difficult” topography protects it from becoming one more giant monocrop rectangle, which keeps character, recreation, and tourism alive. In a world of copy-paste subdivisions, this is scarcity you can stand on.

If you only chase easy dirt, you’ll miss the places people actually want to visit.
