    "My commute to anywhere in the city is not bad. Can catch 794 or drive a little bit to get the freeway. Usually take city streets to downtown or anywhere on the south side. "
  • Brooke E.
    "Fernwood has a top rated Montessori School. There are so many kids in the neighborhood. It's easy for kiddos to meet friends, and easy to meet and bond with other parents. The neighborhood is active and people are usually out and about. "
  • Carinagia
    "It’s quiet close to the lake and other natural settings and So there are plenty of places to take the dog and there are two dog parks quite near which are really nice."
  • Gowds37361
    "People are always out walking in this neighborhood. It has been rated the safest neighborhood in Milwaukee. It's in a quiet corner of the city and there is no through traffic. The lake is very close. There are nice parks and beer gardens in the area. Fernwood Montessori (a free public school) is a neighborhood gem. Note: Milwaukee Public Schools only accept children into the Montessori program as a K3 or K4 (don't count on a space in a K4 classroom). Bay View (including Fernwood) has a strong tradition of community involvement and there's a sense of community here that I never felt growing up in the suburbs."
  • Brooke E.
    "So many kind families. Everyone enjoys being outside and active. Bay View is walkable and has amazing restaurants and activities. Fernwood specifically is quiet gem inside the city. "
  • Sdmcdonell
    "Very close to the lake with walking/biking trails. Fresh local and organic foods within 1/2 mile. Great community!"
