      Neighborhood

      Nestled between Lake Wingra and Lake Monona, Bay Creek is one of Madison’s best neighborhoods. Only six minutes away from Downtown Wisconsin and the University of Wisconsin, Bay Creek is a popular neighborhood for students, faculty, staff, professionals, and families. This diverse neighborhood balances suburban and urban landscapes with scenic waterfront parks, abundant amenities, and easy access to the city’s biggest destinations. Olin Park has romantic views of the Madison Skyline, Goodman Park is great for families, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum offers nature classes and hiking trails.

      Medical offices, grocers, retailers, and global eateries reside along U.S. Highway 151. Bay Creek’s biggest allure is its proximity to Madison’s biggest dining, shopping, and entertainment venues. The neighborhood is convenient to the Alliant Energy Center, the Overture Center, the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art, and more.

      School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
