Greendale was built in the late 1930s as one of three federal “greenbelt” planned towns in the United States, and its original village center and cottage homes are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Later neighborhoods of ranches and two-story homes surround the historic core, along with Southridge Mall, Greendale Village shopping and the Root River Parkway.
Greendale is primarily an owner-occupied community, but it does have duplexes, townhomes and condominiums that rent well because of the village’s schools and parks. Investment properties come up less often here, so it pays to be ready when one does.
