Brookfield is a pleasant, comfortable place to live. The majority of the population enjoys spacious homes with yards, and some also have swimming pools. The area is clean and there are many sidewalks, which is convenient as walking and biking are effective methods of getting around when the weather is nice.
I have lived in Brookfield since I was about 5 or 6 years old. I love the community, it is a small city/suburb area. There are a lot of good parks to go to and nice out-to-ear places. Over the years it has expanded by adding new restaurants, shopping areas, places for kids to enjoy, etc. If you like living in a small city with not much going on, Brookfield Wisconsin is definitely a place to live. Along with that, the Elmbrook School District is one of the top school's districts in the US.
I have been living in Brookfield ever since I was 5 and I love it! It has the highest rated academics in Wisconsin. There are so many job opportunities because of the abundance of restaurants, movie theaters, and shopping centers. It is also the perfect distance from multiple lakes and county/state parks.
