The typical home in Brighton, Wisconsin is worth about $625,333 as of 2026-07-03, up 11.6% over the past year and up 39.2% over five years. Source: Zillow Home Value Index, compiled by Sawar Homes.
Brighton's defining number is 39.2% — its five-year home value growth through April 30, 2026. Add an 11.6% gain in the past year alone, and Brighton reads as a market defined by momentum in this data.
That growth has carried Brighton to the top of the county. Its typical home value of $625,333 ranks 1 of 11 Kenosha County municipalities, about $175,000 — 39% — above the county median of $450,257.
The regional comparison tells the same story: Brighton stands roughly 37% above the seven-county median municipality value of $455,834. One nearby peer, Bristol, sits at $455,834 — exactly the regional median.
Brighton leads its county by a wide margin. The next-highest nearby peer in this data, the town of Paris, carries a typical value of $558,618 — about $66,700 below Brighton. Randall ($480,065), Pleasant Prairie ($468,325), and Bristol ($455,834) trail further.
Both growth readings point the same direction. The 11.6% one-year change exceeds the five-year average pace of roughly 6.8% per year compounded, meaning appreciation accelerated rather than cooled in the most recent period measured. No figure in this data predicts what comes next, and rapid past gains do not guarantee future ones.
This dataset reports no ZIP-level breakdown and no rent figures for Brighton, so the town-level value of $625,333 is the benchmark for the market.
Buyers face a market that added roughly $65,000 in typical value over twelve months. In fast-appreciating markets, stale comps understate current pricing, so recent sales matter more than usual here. Buyers priced out at $625,333 can look at the county's next tiers: Paris at $558,618, Randall at $480,065, or Pleasant Prairie at $468,325.
Sellers hold the strongest combination in Kenosha County's data — first-place value rank plus accelerating appreciation. Even so, listing strategy should rest on what comparable homes actually closed for, not on projecting 11.6% annual gains forward. Historical performance is not a guarantee of future results.
Brighton is open farm country in northwestern Kenosha County, much of it taken up by the 4,500-acre Richard Bong State Recreation Area, with trails, campgrounds, a swimming beach, and restored prairie under wide skies. Next door, Brighton Dale Links offers 45 holes of county-run golf, and Highway 142 connects the town to Burlington in one direction and the I-94 corridor in the other.
