Franklin is one of Milwaukee County’s largest cities by land area and still has room to grow. Subdivisions of newer single-family homes and condominiums sit alongside older farmhouses and open land, and the Ballpark Commons development has added housing, dining and entertainment near 76th Street and Rawson Avenue.
Franklin offers a wide range of housing ages and styles, so newer condominiums and ranch homes give downsizing buyers options without leaving the area.
