"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."
