What makes Milwaukee such a great place to live? The communities of the metropolitan area, each of which offers a quality of life that can't be beat. Looking for an urban setting that's close to downtown or a rural outpost where you can enjoy nature? There is something here for everyone. Within 20 minutes of the downtown, there are major cities and unincorporated towns with no more than 500 residents. Each of the five counties in the metropolitan area has its own distinct character. Milwaukee County seethes with energy. There's always something happening on its vibrant social calendar. Waukesha is one of the fasted-growing counties in the state, yet it still boasts thousands of acres of natural habitat. The rolling hills of Washington County offer beautiful scenery, while historic Ozaukee County recalls life in the 19th Century with its miles of unspoiled Lake Michigan beachfront. Racine County has a thriving, modern marina and is an urban center of its own. Once you've decided what you're looking for, it's easy to find a community that matches your interests.
Choosing where to live may be one of the most difficult decision you will have to make. There are more than 90 communities in the five-county metropolitan area, each with its own distinct advantages. One of your primary considerations will likely be finding a home near where you or your spouse will work. Fortunately, Milwaukee's average commute time is among the lowest in the country, which means it is possible to live anywhere in the metropolitan area and still be close to the urban amenities of downtown Milwaukee.
