Greenbush — 8.1/10 Rating (based on 12 neighborhood reviews)

The neighborhood is pretty good. It is close to Regent Street, Camp Randall, and the Kohl Center. There are bars and restaurants nearby. I generally feel safe in the neighborhood, however, someone broke into my car when I was away for winter break. It is generally more calm and quiet than other areas close to campus except for on gamedays.

This area is full of young professionals. It is about a 15 min walk to UW Madison campus. I feel safe in this area, and my neighbors are kind. There are no large grocery stores near by (as in within a 5min walk). There is a small Asian supermarket across the street, and a various restaurant options.
