Local Info

Welcome to Southeastern Wisconsin, the home of beautiful scenery and friendly people.  Milwaukee has been nicknamed "A Great Place on a Great Lake", a name that really applies to the entire region, from Ozaukee County south to the Illinois state line and from Lake Michigan west to the rolling hills of Waukesha and Washington counties.  Nestled on the western shore of Lake Michigan, this region is the hidden jewel of the Upper Midwest.  It blends small-town ambience and big-city excitement into a way of living that quickly captures the heart of newcomers, many of whom never want to move away.  Southeastern Wisconsin offers a wealth of business and social opportunities.  Its diversified economy is built on a firm foundation of industrial, high-tech and service jobs.  The area's rich ethnic heritage has spawned a variety of colorful events and award-winning restaurants.  But this is no news to people who live here.
