    Hello,

    I don't seem to find many posts from IL's in Milwaukee, WI.

    It looks like I will be relocating early next year on L2 visa. Can anybody tell any information about this city.

    I have questions about everything.
    how do u manage young kids in the cold weather?
    which apartments are safe?
    what should be the average annual salary for 2+2 family?
    what are the things that i should carry with me?

    Anything at all would help.

    Thanks in advance!

Just 20 minutes drive from Miluwakee, its very cold here as of now.we stay in Brookfield here lot of Indians are there I dont have kids as of now but I see kids go to school n do other stuff without much problem but i can say much or accurately ,when are u planning to come here its better u come after Feb so winter will almost be over , as of now I can give u only this much info hope someone else sees this n give u more info... The apartment we are staying is safe has many Indians too, but I have still not made any friends.

    Thank you, Bharani... for taking the time out to reply.

    We have to look for something near Wauwutosa. My DH is asking me to come after Feb only (the school year will get over in India).

    Hope to get good friends for me and my kids, cos we have never lived anywhere else... :)

    @mbharani

    Could you pls tell me the name of some apartments with Indians (with kids) in Brookfield / Wauwatosa??

    My DH has relocated there already, and needs to find an apartment soon. If it is alright, pls mention the rent also. We are looking for a 2 bedroom (either 1or 2 bathroom) house with utilities and amenities.

    Thanks for your help in advance....:)

    Yes, I live in a big apt community which has atleast 30 Indian families. And many of them have kids and stay at home, so around 8 of us have become friends.

    There is an Indian store here too...

    Hope you had a good India trip. Just trying to forget what will happen in winter, and enjoying long bright days. :)
