WELCOME!

Welcome to the Town of Somers website! Somers is located in Kenosha County in southeastern Wisconsin. Our east/west boundaries are scenic Lake Michigan and Interstate 94 and our north/south boundaries are County Line Road (County Trunk Highway “KR”) and the City of Kenosha outlying areas. Our community of 9,569, established in 1843, still has a small town atmosphere, yet we’re just a short traveling distance to Milwaukee and Chicago. Our Town is made up of agricultural, residential and some commercial uses. In the past 10-15 years we have experienced major growth and development.

The Somers Town Office is located at 7511 12th Street and is open 8 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Mailing address: P.O. Box 197, Somers, WI 53171. The Town Board meets the second & fourth Tuesdays of each month at 7 p.m.

Our website mission statement is to provide the public with useful information about our Town government, current issues, events, and services. We hope you find it useful. If you have any suggestions, we’d love to hear from you! Send comments to feedback@somers.org.
