Kimberly is a village in Outagamie County, in the Appleton metro area. Kimberly, population 6,292, blends seamlessly into the metropolitan area of nearly 180,000 known as the Fox Cities. It lies adjacent to Appleton on the south bank of the Fox River about 100 miles north of Milwaukee and 30 miles south of Green Bay. Together with the City of Kaukauna and Villages of Little Chute and Combined Locks, Kimberly is part of the "Heart of the Valley" area of the Fox Valley.

Founded by the paper industry, the Village of Kimberly still draws its economic strength from paper manufacturing and related industries. The community was created in 1889 as a company settlement for the pulp and paper mill built there by Kimberly, Clark and Co., now international consumer products manufacturer Kimberly-Clark Corp. The mill, now operating as Stora Enso, remains the major employer. Between Kimberly-Clark's and Stora Enso's ownership, the coated paper mill was owned by Canadian-based Repap Enterprises among others. The village celebrates the prosperity it has derived from the paper industry with an annual Paper Arts Festival.

The village has developed an industrial park. Another major employer is U.S. Oil, which has located its headquarters for its convenience stores, motor oil and plumbing, heating and air conditioning operations in Kimberly. Most of the retail is centered in strip shopping centers. Sunset Park opens up the Fox River to recreation and has served as host multiple times for the International Softball Congress annual World Tournament and is home to the ISC Hall of Fame.

As a growing community within the Fox Cities metroplex, Kimberly, Wisconsin, has numerous academic, employment and recreational opportunities to offer its residents and guests. And even beyond the Fox Cities region, Kimberly is within easy driving distance of Wisconsin's popular Door County Peninsula, the western shoreline communities along Lake Michigan and the limitless attractions available in the Milwaukee area in southeastern Wisconsin.
