Lived in Milwaukee for 31 years, and I can honestly say this city has gone down the drain. The public school system is not like how it used to be, just horrible. Anywhere in the inner city makes me feel unsafe, it's normal to be over cautious due to the ridiculous amount of reported crime we hear each day. If you support CCW, I advise you to carry when possible.
Yes, Milwaukee is known as the most segregated city in the US. I can easily draw a map of Milwaukee and pinpoint which area is occupied by a certain race.
Milwaukee is a small city, think of it as a mini Chicago. There are lots of festivities during the summer to enjoy. If you enjoy the night life there are multiple spots downtown. Aside from the negativity you hear, there are good things about this city you'll have to experience for yourself. Personally, I wouldn't invest in a home in the inner city. I have The safest areas are generally in the outskirts of Milwaukee. I jokingly tell people that if a city bus route doesn't reach you, you're in a safe zone.

Milwaukee is fine. I've lived here all 31 years of my life, grew up in"bad" areas and "good". I have lived in the suburbs and the city.
There's all your typical stuff here. Suburbs are always safer, but you miss out on a lot in my opinion. We have an enormous amount of parks, beer gardens, festivals, etc. You can drive and park anywhere when you want to be downtown.
Lately, mpw had been replacing a lot of roads around the area, new condos are going up everywhere. We're getting a new basket ball arena. The list goes on! Make sure to check out Shorewood, it's a small town on the water just north of the city with a great community.
My philosophy is just don't be a victim. Don't stare at your phone walking down the street at night, if a guy looks shady head away from his direction. If your car has tinted windows, expect someone will think you have cool stuff and take it.
The majority of bad rap has been the 13 to 19 black male population based on the police reports I receive from my district, but officers are having great success in catching these criminals (or they die in high speed chases). Take it for what it's worth, but it's not like we are Chiraq (Chicago)

I am happy I am coming back, however it will be in the middle of winter. At least they know how to plow in WI compared to Virginia.
Does anybody by chance have a set of stock shock and springs or some not coilovers? I bought Godspeed projects and It was a horrible choice to make.
