Known simply as “Tosa” to residents, the thriving business district at the heart of Wauwatosa is home to over 100 stores, restaurants, and businesses organized in the style of a European village. On a warm day, locals love to hop on a Bublr bike to explore the shops and wander the streets. If you need to do some heavy-duty shopping, stop by Mayfair Mall - it’s one of the region’s premier shopping centers and features a full movie theater and several different restaurants, as well as large outlet stores.

For the outdoor enthusiast, over 2,000 acres of green space is available for walking, biking, and playing. Visit the Milwaukee Zoo and take a ride on the Safari Train, or head to a game at Miller Park! If you’re a golfer, check out Currie Park for a top-notch 18-hole round.
