About the Regent Neighborhood & the RNA

The Regent Neighborhood is located on the near west side of Madison, Wisconsin, adjacent to the University of Wisconsin campus, the UW and VA Hospitals, and the U.S. Forest Products Lab. The neighborhood is also within walking distance of Lake Mendota, Lake Wingra, the Henry Vilas Zoo, local business districts and bike and pedestrian trails.

The purpose of the Regent Neighborhood Association (RNA) is to articulate common interests in the neighborhood, work for neighborhood improvement, and maintain strong communications with and between residents. The RNA seeks to be a broad-based, inclusive, and credible organization engaging as many neighborhood residents as possible in efforts to improve the neighborhood.

Specifically, we strive to:
-maintain the family and residential character of the neighborhood while welcoming small businesses;
-improve the quality of schools, green spaces, transportation, and other features of the neighborhood;
-encourage good relations between homeowners, landlords, renters, and business owners; and
-promote citizen involvement in neighborhood and city affairs.
