New water service from Lake Michigan is drastically increasing the price of water in the area. Expected to increase 91% in the next year! The area is friendly and safe. Housing costs and taxes have risen dramatically in the last few years making it more difficult to make it on a fixed income.

The area is nice and clean and the neighbors are friendly and polite and very respectful and tentative about each other

Waukesha has a very walkable downtown.  There are festivals during the warmer months that are free to attend, and accessible.  There are many healthcare options.

We have a wide variety of restaurants to choose from, most are reasonably priced.  There are many businesses in the Waukesha area also.  

Our downtown has many unique shops and dining options.

I was born and raised here. As far as I'm concerned it is very "age friendly"!
