This place is a great to live in! It is a little expensive but worth it. Super friendly people and nice housing. If you like local restaurants and places to hangout with friends, this is the place. The Village of Wauwatosa is a very upcoming place and has many exciting things to do. Personal, I love to go to the Farmer's Market in the village in the summer. So many Milwaukee businesses come and bring fresh produce there too. It's a great place to meet neighbors and enjoy yourself! Also Eastern Tosa on North Avenue has many new small businesses that are exciting to go to.
The best place to live in Wisconsin. Historical architecture, great green spaces and awesome schools. Not to mention, 15 minutes from everywhere!
I love Tosa with my entire heart! The town is incredibly accessible and very pleasant to live in. There is a little bit of work to be done in terms of diversity, but the residents here are very accepting of everyone.
