I have looked all over the sights and have found very little on the history/sights/and tourism in ock creek wondered what else is right IN THE TOWN of oak creek. Also wanted to know how far it is from the heart of MILWAUKEE...Is your town industrial mostly or touristy ? We may be moving there and want to get to oak creek more. Would anyone have any info or pictures for me? see there is a railroad running through there? Is it loud all over the town? If anyone knows a real estate sight where i can find houses for sale please let me kno also ! TY Oak Creek Residents !

Hello:

You may want to focus your search for things to do on Milwaukee. Oak Creek is a suburb. There are specific events that are directly in Oak Creek, however, most major events, things, etc are in Milwaukee about 10-15 minutes north.

A great website for the happenings of the area is www.onmilwaukee.com

There are festivals every weekend in the summer at the lake front, several community festivals at the various schools and churches.

Miller Park Brewers Baseball, Bucks Basketball, Soccer, Marquette University Sports tc

State fair is in August and the grounds are to the west of Milwaukee and NW of Oak Creek

Many of the events use shuttle busses from key points in the suburbs so you may not even need to drive into the city

Hope this helps.
