Cudahy: A Lakefront Meatpacking Town South of Milwaukee
Cudahy sits on the west shore of Lake Michigan, immediately south of Milwaukee's St. Francis neighborhood. The city was platted in 1892 by Patrick Cudahy, an Irish-born meatpacker who relocated his operation from Milwaukee and built an entire company town around it. The Patrick Cudahy plant, later owned by Smithfield Foods, still operates on Layton Avenue and remains one of the largest pork processing facilities in the Midwest. A massive fire in 2009 destroyed part of the complex and burned for days, visible from Milwaukee.
General Mitchell International Airport borders Cudahy on the west, which shapes the city's development pattern and noise profile. Sheridan Park runs along the lakefront bluff and offers one of the few public beach access points between downtown Milwaukee and Racine. The downtown commercial district along Packard Avenue retains early-20th-century storefronts from the meatpacking boom years.
Cudahy's population of roughly 18,000 reflects the working-class character that the packing plant established over a century ago. Polish, German, and Irish families settled the streets laid out on Patrick Cudahy's original plan, and the parish churches still mark those immigration patterns.
