Wimmer Communities is honored to announce that we have been chosen for two 2023 Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Top Choice Awards. Wimmer Communities is Milwaukee’s Top Choice Apartments Finalist and Assisted Living Finalist. This is Wimmer’s fifth appearance in the city’s Top Choice Awards, with our first win in 2021. Forest Ridge, the Finalist for the Assisted Living category, has been recognized as a Top Choice since 2017.
The Milwaukee Top Choice Awards are quite important in determining a business’s success. The award “highlights organizations and businesses that [are chosen] for their exceptional work,” says the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. This becomes evident throughout the voting process, as well as the panel of judges. The awards are determined over a 21-week long period, with a four-week period for the nomination round (February 1st-28th), a two-week period for voting (April 10th -24th), and the announcement of the winners almost nine weeks later (June 25th). Within these time periods, the votes are counted and sifted through. As for the judging panel, the votes come in from people in the community, selecting their favorites to progress throughout the rounds. The Milwaukee Top Choice Award is so special because it comes from the people of the community, after rigorous voting!
Wimmer Communities and Forest Ridge were met with competition throughout. The initial nomination round recognized more than 510 businesses and organizations, that are sorted into 170 different categories. After we progressed to the voting round, within the Apartment Complex category, Wimmer was up against Steeple View, Clement Manor, and the Locklyn Apartments. Forest Ridge was paired up against Capri Communities, Clement Manor, New Perspective Senior Living, and Steeple View.
We know that this nomination would not be possible without the resilience, strength, and well-versed skillset of our Wimmer Communities team. Our team works hard daily to provide the highest quality and best living experience possible. We always want to ensure that our residents have TOP service!
Wimmer thanks you again for the nomination of finalists for the 2023 Milwaukee Top Choice Awards in Apartment Complex and Assisted Living!
