Oconomowoc housing prices -when will it stop?
Hey folks, Just moved here 5 months ago and Poverty rate is 3.7%, which is pretty low. With a population of 18,385, Oconomowoc is a small town. Homes are going for about $367,700 on average. It's a a small town city with about 18,385 people. The city has invested a lot in new development. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.
Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Lots of new development
- Strong sense of community
Cons:
- Hot summers
- Limited nightlife
- High property taxes
- Far from major airports
Worth the trade-offs? The city has invested a lot in new development. The city has invested a lot in new development. The food scene here is surprisingly good.
