Greenfield, a city in Milwaukee's southern suburbs

Located just south of Milwaukee, Greenfield is a well-connected city with a settled, suburban feel. Although it's positioned along interstates 41 and 43, it's more than a convenient bedroom community for commuters heading into East Town i. Plenty of parks, shopping centers, public school options and family-friendly events give residents a comfortable and convenient lifestyle in the Brew City's southern suburbs, all within reach of downtown's entertainment and employment centers.

Single-family homes and condos in suburban neighborhoods

Greenfield's housing stock ranges from prewar bungalows and Cape Cods to mid-1900s ranch-style homes and New Traditional homes built since the 2010s. While housing styles vary, the city's residential streets are decidedly suburban. Whether you're living on a block of Colonial Revivals or in a community of townhouse-style condos, your property is likely to have a grassy lawn and room for shady trees and garden beds. "There are a lot of lifers in Greenfield," says Christopher Novak, a Realtor with Real Broker Milwaukee who has specialized in the greater Milwaukee area for 23 years. "People move there, love it and stay there."

Move-in-ready single-family homes typically sell from the lower $200,000s to the mid-$600,000s. Condos sell from the lower $100,000s to the upper $400,000s. Greenfield has a median single-family home price in the upper $300,000s. That's higher than Milwaukee, but lower than nearby New Berlin and Hales Corners. It's on par with Greendale.

Taking interstates and buses around the Milwaukee area

"With the location, it's quick to get to the airport and quick to get to downtown Milwaukee's lakefront and all it has to offer," Novak says. "Greenfield is a great place to live, work and build your life." Interstates 41 and Interstate 43 intersect within Greenfield, connecting commuters to Milwaukee and its suburbs. You're about 10 miles from downtown, which can be a 15 to 30-minute drive, depending on traffic. Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport is less than 10 minutes away. Locals often drive to get around, but you can also catch Milwaukee County Transit System buses along major roads or at park and ride lots.

Attending Greenfield, Whitnall and West Allis-West Milwaukee schools

Most of Greenfield is served by the School District of Greenfield. While attending Greenfield High School, students can take dual enrollment courses to earn college credit from the University of Wisconsin, as well as from various private and technical colleges. The rest of the city is within either the Whitnall School District or the West Allis-West Milwaukee School District. Families can explore out-of-district, private and charter options through Wisconsin's robust school choice program.
