Milwaukee is the largest city within the
state of Wisconsin and 22nd-largest in the United States. The city
is the main cultural and economic center of the Milwaukee
metropolitan area. Milwaukee is known as "The City of Festivals" for
its great number of ethnic and musical festivals, the largest of
which is Summerfest. It has also been called "the nation's watering
hole," having more bars per capita than any other large city in the
country. Milwaukee residents are known as Milwaukeeans.
Milwaukeeans often comment that Milwaukee feels like "a big small
town." Milwaukee received its name from the Indian word Millioke
which means "The Good Land", or "Gathering place by the water."
Another interpretation is "beautiful or pleasant lands".
