About Milwaukee Living

Located on the shores of Lake Michigan, Milwaukee is perhaps best known for its famous breweries and the Major League Brewers, but there's more to the city than beer and baseball. Milwaukee is rich in historical and cultural attractions, boasting a beautiful lakeshore and a diverse population, making it the perfect place for work, fun and raising a family. Check out the Milwaukee Art Museum or the Mitchell Park Horticultural Society, which hosts an annual show of the same flora and fauna seen in Georgia O'Keefe's paintings. Those interested in the city's history can visit the grand Pabst Mansion, former home of one of the city's famous beer barons, or the Milwaukee Public Museum, to see what life was like in Old Milwaukee. There's also plenty for the kids. Don't miss the Milwaukee County Zoo or the Betty Brinn Children's Museum.
