Port Washington is the Ozaukee County seat and a Lake Michigan harbor city, with a marina, a historic lighthouse, a downtown of shops and restaurants, and a lakefront breakwater walk. Neighborhoods on the bluffs and hills include 19th-century homes, mid-century houses and newer subdivisions and condominiums.
Lake views and a walkable downtown make Port Washington a draw for people downsizing from a larger suburban home.
