Green Bay Overview

The third largest city on the shores of Lake Michigan in the great state of Wisconsin, Green Bay is an in-demand mid-western locale that has much to offer a wide array of lifestyles. A true 'industrial city' through and through, this on-the-move hot spot combines gorgeous natural scenery with plenty of amenities and a sound economic base.

What is the history of Green Bay?

Green Bay established itself as a center of trade after the completion of the Erie Canal in the early 1800s, and the city was officially incorporated in 1854. The 1860s saw the arrival of the railroads, and with them came added opportunities for those living in the city. Paper mills and meat packing plants dominated the local economy, and by 1960 the city boasted over 50,000+ residents. 

How is the weather in Green Bay?

Those calling Green Bay apartments home can expect four distinct seasons, from the rainy and hot summer months to the scenic spring and autumns. Winter can be a tad harsh thanks to its proximity to Lake Michigan, with snow a common occurrence from December to February.

How do I get around town?

Green Bay Metro supplies bus service to much of the city, with Greyhound also providing further transfers to Chicago and beyond. Rail is mainly designated for freight these days, although the Green Bay International Airport offers much in the way of domestic and abroad trips. Still, a majority of those residing in Green Bay rentals rely on a personal car or truck for getting around on the daily.

What is the Green Bay commute like?

Interstate 43 acts as the major roadway to Milwaukee and beyond, while I-41 leads to Appleton. Both experience congestion on the daily, with Wisconsin 29 and 54 both offering 'scenic' options for those not in a hurry. Those working in the city center should have a fairly easy daily commute, with traffic limited to typical 9 to 5 congestion and occasional roadwork.

What are the local media outlets?

The 'Green Bay Press-Gazette' is the major print option in the region, with the 'News-Chronicle' a close second. Those living in an apartment in Green Bay will not lack for broadcasting options, with WLUK and WBAY offering major affiliate programming for the likes of ABC and FOX. Radio is dominated by classic rock, jazz and sporting news for the most part.

Why live in Green Bay, WI?

Brimming with a large assortment of landmarks listed on the National Registry of Historic Places as well as a bustling downtown scene highlighted by quaint eateries and plenty of retail shopping, apartments in Green Bay are a fantastic place to call home. From the natural splendor of the harbor area to an abundance of hiking and biking trails, this Wisconsin treasure has remained a solid draw for Midwesterners for good cause.

What Green Bay landmarks should I see?

The Meyer Theater dates back almost a century and remains an excellent place to catch a performance, while the Hazelwood Historic Center stands tall since its construction in 1837. Lambeau Field remains the legendary home of the Green Bay Packers, and nature lovers will surely want to explore all that the Fox River Recreational Trail has to offer. 

What is there to do around Green Bay?

Grab the kids and escape the summer heat with a visit to the Bay Beach Amusement Park, or immerse yourself in local lore with an afternoon spent exploring the halls of the National Railroad Museum, both an easy commute from most Green Bay rentals. The Green Bay Botanical Gardens are always a popular draw, and the nearby Wildlife Sanctuary is a great spot to see birds and other local denizens up close.

Any annual festivals or Green Bay events to know?

The Arti Gras Fine Arts Fest takes over downtown every March, while May is dominated by the FunDue Wine Festival, both drawing large crowds each year. The Garden Faire of June is an excellent place to grab some floral decorations for your new Green Bay apartment, and the annual Olde Fort Square Holiday Parade is sure to get even the grimmest Scrooge feeling up for the season.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Hit the comedy clubs of Madison, or go pub hopping among the many craft breweries of Milwaukee, both an easy drive from most apartments in Green Bay. Those eager for a true road trip can explore Chicago, complete with its famed stage performances and world-class restaurants. Boating and fishing on the lake also, obviously, remains a popular option in the summer months.

Where is the best place to move in Green Bay?

From the luxurious convenience of a stately two-bedroom unit in the heart of downtown, to a family-ideal rental complete with pet-friendly policies and onsite swimming pool, we are certain the perfect new Green Bay apartment is out there just waiting to meet you and your's. So why let another day pass you by without a Wisconsin rental of your very own? Good luck with your search!
