Wales WI 53183

Known for its rural charm and historic feel, Wales is a Waukesha County village that cherishes its past while building toward its future. Over 2,500 people live in the 3.29 square miles that make up the village. Waukesha borders Wales to the east, while Delafield is its neighbor to the north. With State Highways 18 and 83 crossing through the village, downtown Milwaukee is a quick 30-minute drive east.

The area was first settled in 1840 by Welsh immigrants who were drawn to the landscape, as it reminded them of their home country. Business boomed after the Chicago Northwestern railroad arrived 40 years later. Today, the 100+ businesses in the village are still growing, with many located in the historic downtown district. The Welsh influence is still present, thanks, in part, to the logo of the village replicating the Welsh national flag. Residential property in Wales ranges from multi-million dollar houses to acres of land ready for building. The median home value is $255,000.
