Milwaukee was, for a long time, always compared with the popular Chicago but over the years, this city has shown that it is a vibrant city that does not have to play second fiddle to the Midwest's biggest metropolis. The 1.7 million people who call Milwaukee home are proud of this diverse city with its different neighborhoods. In the olden days, the boundaries between the various neighborhoods were marked by bridges over the Milwaukee River, but now the neighborhoods are distinct enough to identify on their own, without the dividing line of the bridges.
Milwaukee's economy was built on beer, but that industry has in turn ushered in other kinds of businesses. These days, Milwaukee has five of the world's best companies according to Forbes magazine and they don't even have anything to do with brewing beer. There's a vibrant artistic community in Milwaukee and a few museums that make this town particularly worthwhile for history and art buffs. Milwaukee has also earned the title "City of Festivals" because of the many festivals that are hosted by the city - Milwaukee is always buzzing, day or night, in the winter or summer.
Milwaukee has everything that makes cities thrive, including a dynamic economy, great health care infrastructure including teaching and children's hospitals, one of the highest per capita student populations in the country, and extensive new real estate development.
