Default Milwaukee crew help.. I got some questions about moving there.

Can you help me out... well... this isnt for me .. its for my brother thats looking to move to the area.

Whats the best area to live for the most reasonable rents. Hes got a few kids and they need some good schools and a nice area to raise some kids.

So help me out here I want him to move to the best area he can afford.
Anyone know any rental houses in good areas? Let me know they are looking to move in a month or so.
Thanks!
Jeff

Where is he going to be working? Stay away from Milwaukee Public schools or MPS. What kind of commute can he tolerate?

Exactly. What side of Millwaukee is he going to be working on? If on the West he could try the Dousman/Oconmowoc area.

Like the other's said, where is he working and what kind of drive can he stand?

Personally I would do whatever I can to stay out of WI.

Hahaha.

I like Muskego, New Berlin, Waukesha(west side by Pewaukee, Oconomowoc, Delafiled, Dousman) Definitely NOT downtown Waukesha area. There are areas better than others in Milwaukee, but I choose to avoid them all together and just make the commute. You'll be able to tell good from bad just as soon as you drive into the neighborhood.

Maybe if you provided the zipcode or area where your brother might work, that would be a good start. How long of a commute would he be willing to do?

I hear north and south Millwaukee are very family friendly areas
