The Muskego market specifically
Muskego, in southwestern Waukesha County, is home to a major continuing-care retirement community campus that anchors much of the local senior-housing supply.
Families near Muskego frequently compare it against Franklin and New Berlin, the two closest Milwaukee/Waukesha County suburbs with a similar suburban character.
