The City of Oak Creek is a local government administration serving a mid-sized municipality in southeastern Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, located along the western shore of Lake Michigan and adjacent to the City of Milwaukee. It covers about 28.4 square miles and lies within the Milwaukee Metropolitan area, roughly 85 miles from Chicago and 330 miles from Minneapolis via I-94. The city contains 22 distinct neighborhoods with diverse housing stock, much of which has been built since its incorporation in 1955, including a mix of single-family homes, duplexes, condominiums, and apartments. In May 2024, Oak Creek announced a partnership with F Street Corporation to develop walking trails, parks, playgrounds, and a lakeside community green, expanding public amenities. The city government oversees planning and community development to balance housing variety and land use within its jurisdiction.
