The county is bordered on the west by the St. Croix River, a federally designated wild and scenic river, with the magnificent St. Croix Dalles forming the heart of Interstate State Park. Peacefully rural in nature, the county has no city with a population over 3,000. Polk County was organized in 1853, and over the past decade has been one of the fastest-growing counties in Wisconsin.
