The village was founded in the 1840s.
Why Germantown appeals to buyers seeking community ties
Germantown is a village known for its strong local connections and relaxed pace of life. Residents enjoy access to highly rated schools, neighborhood parks and scenic trails. Events throughout the year, from farmers markets to Oktoberfest celebrations, help bring neighbors together and add to the area's welcoming atmosphere. Combined with a range of housing options and convenient access to Milwaukee, Germantown attracts buyers looking for comfort and a strong sense of community.
Most homes are newer, with options across many budgets
Most of Germantown's housing stock was built in the 21st century, giving buyers a wide range of options. Manufactured and midcentury-style homes are clustered around the Willow Creek area, with prices ranging from about $40,000 to the low $500,000s. Victory Center has many contemporary colonial and ranch-style homes that typically range from around $300,000 to the high $700,000s. Condos and duplexes are especially popular near the center of the village and often sell between the low $100,000s and the mid-$200,000s. The median sale price in Germantown is in the mid-$400,000s, making it generally more expensive than Milwaukee but less than Richfield, Menomonee Falls and Mequon.
Germantown is about 20 miles from Milwaukee.
The village is expanding with new developments every year.

Hundreds of acres of parkland and outdoor spaces
Germantown has over 400 acres of parkland spread across the village. Schoen Laufen Park is a nearly 40-acre environmental green space with a trail winding through beech and maple forests along the Menomonee River. Educational markers and benches line the path, and wildflowers fill the landscape each spring. Gehl’s Performing Arts Pavilion at Firemen's Park hosts the area's Fourth of July celebration, Maifest and the Music at the Pavilion summer concert series.
Germantown is the oldest settlement in Washington County.
Commuters have easy access to Milwaukee and beyond
Getting around is primarily done by car. Interstate 41 runs directly through the area, providing a major route for commuters heading to Milwaukee, which is about 20 miles away. Appleton Avenue, Fond du Lac Avenue and Mequon Road are other key routes.
A mix of local eateries and convenient shopping options
A handful of local favorites make up Germantown's dining scene, with additional choices just beyond the city limits. You can find everything from pizza to supper clubs at these spots:
Old Germantown, a brewery and cafe on a historic farmstead serving wood-fired pizzas and house-made sausages
Relish Supper Club, a modern take on the Wisconsin supper club with hearty entrees and crafted cocktails
Bubs Irish Pub, a long-standing establishment with bar food and a full events calendar
The Fox & Hounds Restaurant & Tavern, an eatery based in a historic 1845 cabin in nearby Hubertus
For everyday shopping, many residents head to spots along Mequon Road and Main Street, where they'll find everything from groceries to specialty stores. Sendik's Food Market is a popular stop for fresh produce and prepared meals, while retailers like Menards handle home improvement and project needs. For a wider selection of stores, many locals also make the short trip to nearby shopping hubs in Menomonee Falls and Brookfield.
From Maifest to Oktoberfest, events draw local crowds
The village brings people together with a mix of festivals, outdoor entertainment and holiday traditions. Popular events include:
Maifest, a three-day spring festival at Firemen's Park with live music, dancing and traditional food
Concerts in the Park, a free Wednesday summer evening series featuring local musicians
Fourth of July Celebration, a day of festivities including a parade and fireworks at dusk
Oktoberfest at Dheinsville Historic Park, a free two-day festival with food, beer and the popular Dachshund Dash
