In the Greater Milwaukee-Waukesha Metropolitan Area, one of the most desirable locations to live is the metro area’s southwest suburbs. And within those southwest suburbs, one of the most charming communities is its smallest – the Village of Hales Corner.

Named after a prominent early settler, William Hale, Hales corner sits almost at the southwestern edge of the metro area just a couple of miles east of Little and Big Muskego Lakes. Essentially a bedroom commuter community, Hales Corner is home to an estimated population of 8,500 people. It is 12 miles from both downtown Milwaukee and Milwaukee International Airport.

A safe community, the residents of Hales Corners take great civic pride in the presentation of their village. Fiercely independent and wanting to maintain its own identity from the rest of Milwaukee’s other communities, Hales Corner is known for its well-maintained streets and boulevards, manicured public parks, and outstanding school district - Whitnall School District. The area is home to some of the most beautiful parks in Milwaukee including the expansive Whitnall Park.

For attractions, then you’re in the most happening place in Wisconsin. Lively Milwaukee is home to professional sports team – the Bucks (NBA) and Brewers (MLB); the Milwaukee Art and Public Museums; Milwaukee County Zoo; Mitchell Park Horticultural Conservatory, and of course experiencing the city’s rich beer heritage.
