A 43.3% five-year gain puts Wheatland in rare company. Few municipalities in southeastern Wisconsin have compounded that fast since 2021. As of April 30, 2026, the town's typical home value is $450,257 — a figure that also happens to equal the Kenosha County median exactly.
So Wheatland is the county's price midpoint with an outlier's growth curve. The past year added another 6.4%, keeping the trajectory well above what its middle-of-the-pack rank — 6 of 11 Kenosha County municipalities — would suggest.
Against the seven-county regional median of $455,834, Wheatland prices about $5,600 below — one of the few markets in this batch under the regional line.
Value first: $450,257, matching the Kenosha County median and ranking 6 of 11 in the county — the literal middle. It runs about $5,600 under the seven-county regional median of $455,834, making Wheatland a slightly below-regional-median market.
Growth is what separates it. The 43.3% five-year change is the standout figure — for comparison, neighboring Bristol posted 33.1% and Pleasant Prairie 33.8% over the same window. Wheatland's one-year change of 6.4% also runs ahead of Bristol's 5.5%. A market that has grown 43% in five years and still sits at its county median started from a much lower base.
The peer ladder around it: Twin Lakes (village) at $408,283 below; Bristol (village) at $455,834, Pleasant Prairie (village) at $468,325, and Randall (town) at $480,065 above. Wheatland has been climbing toward that upper group.
| Homes sold (arms-length, single-family) | 43 |

Over the 12 months ending June 2026, 43 single-family homes sold in Wheatland, Wisconsin in arms-length transactions, at a median price of $299,000. Half of those sales fell between $156,500 and $430,000. Source: Wisconsin Department of Revenue real estate transfer returns, compiled by Sawar Homes — every recorded sale, including for-sale-by-owner and builder-direct transactions that never appear in the MLS.
Zillow’s typical-home-value estimate for Wheatland is $450,257, while homes that actually changed hands had a median price of $299,000 — a difference of -33.6%. These measure different things, and neither is wrong: the index estimates the value of every home whether or not it sold, while the sale figure reflects only the homes that changed hands, which usually skew toward the more affordable end of the market.
For buyers: Wheatland's numbers describe a market that has re-rated quickly — 43.3% in five years — yet still prices at the county median and below the regional median. If the trajectory continues, today's $450,257 is the entry point into a rising market; if it cools, you have still paid no premium over typical Kenosha County. Neither outcome is guaranteed, and a 6.4% one-year pace means offers benchmarked to stale comps will run low.
For sellers: owners who bought five years ago are sitting on the largest percentage gains in this peer group. The current 6.4% annual pace supports confident pricing, but the benchmark discipline still applies — Wheatland's typical value of $450,257 sits between Twin Lakes at $408,283 and Bristol at $455,834, and buyers will see all three markets in their search. I use the full peer ladder, not just the town figure, when positioning a Wheatland listing.
Wheatland is a rural town in western Kenosha County where the Fox River winds past the crossroads communities of New Munster, Slades Corners, and Lily Lake. Outdoor life centers on the 1,226-acre New Munster Wildlife Area, Kenosha County's Fox River Park with its river landing, disc golf courses, and lighted winter sled hill, and on Lily Lake and Powers Lake for swimming, boating, and ice fishing. Highway 50 crosses the town, linking the Lake Geneva area to the west with Kenosha and I-94 to the east.
