Menomonee Falls Introduction

Menomonee Falls Welcomes You!

Nestled in the rolling hills northwest of downtown Milwaukee, Menomonee Falls takes pride in its status as the largest village in Wisconsin, in its independence and in its ability to successfully maintain a quiet character and high quality of life during a lengthy period of growth and development.

Menomonee Falls takes its name from the Menomonee River, which courses diagonally through the northeast corner of the Village. Residents, however, often shorten the name to The Falls. It was along the banks of the river that early settlement of the Village took place. Today, Menomonee Falls boasts open farmland and natural preserves — the perfect setting for contemporary residential development. Easy access to expressways is drawing more and more families to The Falls. New homes in new subdivisions continue to spring up along the many roadways that crisscross the Village.

Menomonee Falls is a self-contained and self-sustained community. While proximity to Milwaukee is an advantage, The Falls has developed and retained its own unique character and high quality of life. Its setting is enhanced by lush parks, wildlife areas, beautiful homes, excellent schools, fine churches, quality healthcare, superb recreational resources and prosperous industrial and business facilities.

Schools and village government have achieved a high degree of efficiency, effectiveness and excellence. The community is within close proximity to a quality technical college and to many respected colleges and universities.

Roadways linking The Falls with surrounding metropolitan, suburban and rural areas allow residents abundant choices of shopping, cultural, entertainment, recreational and professional sports activities.

Menomonee Falls’ independent spirit prevails. With vision and skilled management, the Village continuously moves forward with confidence in its people and its ability to preserve an enviable way of life.
