Clownin' Around In West Allis, WI 2 rating By Anonymous ( Aug 10, 2010) If you are an avid fan of clowns you will be sure to have a great time in West Allis. But if you want a little more excitement West Allis is probably not the best place for you to visit. I went to the International Clown Hall Of Fame and I was enticed to giggle. Although it is qu ...Read More ite interesting, I have to ask myself if they are taking it a little too seriously.

West Allis is a very small city with very friendly people. You feel like you are right at home which is always nice because you never want to feel like the tourist. If you ask the locals a question about directions they are very eager to answer and help you in any way possible.

There is not much of a chance to go to any nite clubs or to enjoy a nightlife but there are a few bars and lounges. I was looking for a little bit of excitement but all I found was a quiet evening at home. This was something I could have actually done at my own home. I stayed at a small bed and breakfast and dined at some restraunts that offered home cooked meals. I was not very impressed with my experience in West Allis. Read Less
