Now when it comes to advice or people's favorite neighborhood it usually goes as follows...

1. East Side
2. Third Ward
3. BayView
4. Downtown
5. Walker's Point
6. Riverwest
7. Brewers Hill

and in distant 8th Washington Heights.

We all know and love these areas but what are some other specific neighborhoods you like or have an affinity towards.

For instance, I love my old neighborhood of Muskego Way/Forest Home Hills but I also really like West Burnham Park roughly bounded by 35th street west to 38/37th south to Lincoln Ave and North to Burnham Ave. It's a quiet and for the most part well kept area.

Another hidden gem is Harder's Oaks by St. Luke's hospital. Some of my other favorites are Piggsville, Story Hill, Wilson Park, Morgandale and the same looking College Heights to name a few. Clayton Crest is also another hidden gem in fact there are lot of nice homes on South 20th Street just west of the freeway.


If you could include the link of a google maps view of the area you like...like how I did in the next thread, all you do is copy and paste the google maps link.

I also like Milwaukee River Parkway, small but a great location that I assume most people think that it's a part of Glendale.

It’s not? I live there. Tell me why you say it’s not safe.

I think the "Riverwest is dangerous" thing is dated pre...2010?

It's fine...
