Milwaukee’s rental market is busiest near universities and the Third Ward, with lakefront neighborhoods highly desirable. Suburbs remain affordable and family-friendly, and revitalized areas are attracting more young professionals. For a quieter lifestyle, consider neighborhoods outside the downtown core.
Apartment List has released Milwaukee’s results from the third annual Apartment List Renter Satisfaction Survey. This survey, which drew on responses from over 45,000 renters nationwide, provides insight on what states and cities must do to meet the needs of the country’s 111 million renters.
"Milwaukee renters expressed general satisfaction with the city overall," according to Apartment List. "However, ratings varied greatly across different categories, indicating that even though renters love Milwaukee, some aspects can be better."










































































































































































































































































































































































Established comfort defines Silver Spring, where this northwestern Milwaukee neighborhood offers mid-century homes at more accessible rates than trendier districts closer to downtown. Rental properties typically include features like hardwood floors, basements, and generous yards increasingly rare in more densely developed areas. The neighborhood provides excellent access to both Menomonee River Parkway recreation and shopping along Silver Spring Drive, creating convenient positioning for households seeking residential character without excessive commutes to major Milwaukee employment centers. Ideal for families seeking value with reasonable urban access in a stable residential setting.
Cultural diversity energizes Lower East Side, where historic buildings house a vibrant mix of students, artists, and young professionals near Lake Michigan. Residents enjoy walking access to Bradford Beach and the restaurants along Farwell Avenue reflecting the area's eclectic character. Though winter parking challenges increase with snow accumulation, the neighborhood's excellent public transportation options reduce car dependency. The area's continuing evolution balances preservation with contemporary additions, creating an eclectic atmosphere where century-old buildings house both traditional ethnic businesses and trendy new ventures reflecting Milwaukee's evolving identity.
Lake Michigan views wow from high-rises near Bradford Beach. Renters enjoy rooftop pools but note $200+/month parking fees in most buildings.
