Post-WWII suburbia
Founded after a significant influx of returning soldiers after World War II, Morgan Heights is a centrally located community on the south side of Milwaukee. With real estate that falls far below the national average, many are attracted to the neighborhood for starter homes or an appreciation for its unique architectural styles. ”People move here because the area is affordable, and it is bordered by major thoroughfares,’ says First Weber Realtor Margaret Harris, who lives nearby and has been selling homes in the area for ten years.
The Morgan Heights location allows to easily travel around and through Milwaukee.

Winding trails in Alcott Park
Half a mile west is the 17-acre Alcott Park, which features playground equipment, a community room for local events and an expansive lawn, ideal for games and picnics. Euclid Park covers 9 acres with clusters of mature oak and maple trees. “It’s got all the basics that you would need,” says Kimberly Mackowski, who runs a local blog, The Park Next Door. “It’s got a nice, paved walking trail, which is great in all four seasons because they tend to plow it in the winter. If you want to have a picnic, read a book or take the kids to the park for the afternoon, it’s a great place to go.” The Powerline Trail runs less than half a mile south of the neighborhood. This mixed-use path currently covers 3 miles, with several expansions planned in the coming years.
