Milwaukee Area Basics please

Hello everyone,

I have yet to buy my first property. I live in AZ but I’ve been looking in my hometown of Wausau WI. There is very little inventory there and in some areas the property taxes are really high. 
I want to get to know a market with more inventory yet still somewhere in WI so I thought I’d look into Milwaukee. I really don’t know where the good neighborhoods are though.

I would appreciate any basic knowledge of what the decent areas are (I’d love street boundaries since the app I use doesn’t show neighborhoods). Thank you for your help and any information you would like to provide. If it seems like a good market to look in I’ll also be looking for an investor (and newbie) friendly realtor. 
Thank you!

    @Tyler Hull Thank you for your help. I'm looking for a duplex ideally, but if the numbers work on a SFR that would be okay.
    @Brock Mogensen I appreciate your input. I like West Allis and Cudahy. 
    @Marcus Auerbach Thanks for the tip, I’ll take a look at the map. 
    @Dustin Young

    1. Duplex ideally

    2. $100k ish

    3. This will be long distance so I need a team  

    4. Buy and hold.
