Characteristics

Transportation

Driving is a great medium of transportation in this city. Accessing a place to park is generally easy. The bicycle is a somewhat poor means of transportation in Brookfield since the cycling infrastructure is not very comprehensive, and there are a good number of slopes for cyclists to brave. Many of the homes for sale in this city are located in places that are also not very convenient for people who prefer to get around as pedestrians as running common errands is at times challenging without a car.

Services

Locals will welcome that no matter where their home is situated in this city, primary schools are nearby. In contrast, it can be very hard to reach high schools as a pedestrian. Along with public schools, there are private elementary and secondary schools. When it comes to eating, a car is often needed in Brookfield to reach one of about 40 grocery stores. A small variety of restaurants and cafes is available as well.

Character

People who prefer a relaxed atmosphere will enjoy Brookfield. Most areas in this city are quiet, as the streets are generally quite tranquil - although that is not the case close to the airport (Capitol), I-94 or the railway line. Finally, public green spaces, such as Greenfield Park and Marx Park, are very well-spread out and there are over 50 of them nearby for residents to unwind in, making them easy to access.
