Hudson is a city in St. Croix County, Wisconsin, United States. As of 2005, the city had an estimated population of 11,353. Hudson has experienced considerable growth in recent years due to its proximity to the Twin Cities. Hudson has been considered part of the Minneapolis-St.Paul metro area since 2000. The village of North Hudson is located directly to the north.

1850 and 1860 saw a great influx of settlers, and many of today's Hudson citizens are descendants of these early pioneers. The main attraction of this area at the time was the first lumber industry, and as time went on, the entire St. Croix Valley was dotted with sawmills of varying importance. In 1852, Gray, Hudson's first mayor, petitioned to change the name of the city to Hudson, because the St. Croix reminded him of New York’s Hudson River.

Hudson is located at 44.972017, -92.744977.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 16.2 km² (6.3 mi²). 14.0 km² (5.4 mi²) of it is land and 2.3 km² (0.9 mi²) of it (13.88%) is water.
