Trendy but grounded, neighborhood-proud, artsy, walkable waterfront. Average home prices around $350k.

KK (Kinnickinnic Ave.) is the backbone - bars, bakeries, vintage shops, restaurants. Many modest cottages, bungalows, late-Victorian homes and historic worker housing remain — giving the neighborhood an intact “streetcar suburb” / 19th-to-early-20th-century feel.

Who loves it: Young families, creatives, people who want walkability but not high-rises, and access to the water.
