Very-walkable neighborhood surrounded by nature
Residents of the 9th Ward are surrounded by nature, minutes away from North Beach and Quarry Lake Park, a 40-acre green space, making this neighborhood a walkable hotspot for residents. “This is definitely an area that attracts people who want to live on the outskirts of cities like Milwaukee,” says Vincent Devall, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty. “The beach is always a hotspot, especially during the spring and summer, and plenty of food trucks fill the area.” The 9th Ward also offers access to multiple bus stops through Ryde Racine and affordable single-family housing, with modern duplexes dominating the community.
Affordable single-family homes throughout community
Single-family bungalows and two-story duplexes with narrow driveways offering a mix of on- and off-street parking define this neighborhood. “You will find the same style of homes in the First Ward, except for the lakefront properties,” says Devall. “These two neighborhoods mirror each other almost identically.” Home prices in this community range from as low as $60,000 for single-family bungalows or duplexes to upwards of $160,000.
