Since its founding in the late 1800s by businessman and namesake Patrick Cudahy, our city has been known for its strong business partnerships.  We're not all work and no play, however. There are a number of good reasons that 18,000 residents choose to make Cudahy their home base for shopping, dining and exploring. Here are just a few. 

1. Plenty of Parks. Cudahy has six county parks and 823 acres of parkland. Warnimont Golf, an 18 hole executive, par-54 municipal course, is the perfect place to spend an afternoon on the links. The city's lakefront park…featuring a popular hike/bike trail…was created on acreage given by Patrick Cudahy to Milwaukee County.

 

2. Farm Freshness. Cudahy residents have the opportunity to enjoy weekly farmer's markets, with Packard Avenue downtown filled each Saturday with vendors selling locally grown fruits and vegetables, fresh cut flowers and natural foods.

 

3. Our Grand Finale. Every July 4^th, Cudahy gears up for an Independence Day celebration in a grand style. It starts with a parade featuring over 100 units, leading to a day of park festivities and culminating in a brilliant fireworks display over Lake Michigan at the Sheridan Park shoreline.
