A real city with a small-town heart.
Green Bay is the third-largest city in Wisconsin and the unofficial capital of the northeastern part of the state. Around 105,000 residents live across both sides of the Fox River, in a mix of historic neighborhoods, riverfront condos, and quiet residential streets. The cost of living here runs noticeably lower than in Milwaukee or Madison, which is one of the biggest reasons renters keep choosing it.
A typical week in Green Bay might mean a Saturday at Bay Beach Amusement Park or the Wildlife Sanctuary, dinner downtown in the Broadway District, a walk along the Fox River Trail, and Sunday with the Packers at Lambeau Field. The East Side, the West Side, downtown, and the surrounding villages of Allouez, De Pere, and Bellevue each offer something different. Whether you are a UWGB student, a young professional, or a family planting roots, there is a corner of Green Bay that fits.

One of the best things about renting in Green Bay is how short the commutes are. Most residents can get anywhere in the city in 15 to 20 minutes, thanks to I-43, I-41, and US Route 141 connecting the major neighborhoods. Downtown to the East Side or UWGB is usually under 15 minutes.
