The Fox Cities area is located in northeastern Wisconsin. An area rich in history, original settlement in the area dates to the early 1820's, when members of the Oneida Nation moved to the area from New York State. Growth increased by the 1830's with settlement of what would become today's towns, villages and cities. The Fox River flows through the region, terminating in Green Bay to the northeast. Many of the original communities settled along the river, with surrounding area having an agricultural flavor. Growth is evident throughout the communities, including industrial, commercial and residential. There are a number of incorporated communities in the area, including the Cities of Appleton, Neenah, Menasha, and Kaukauna, the Villages of Little Chute, Kimberly, Combined Locks and Hortonville, and a number of urban townships including Grand Chute, Greenville, Menasha, Harrison and Buchanan (known as Darboy)
