Grafton Millpond vs Thiensville Millpond
Water quality, depth, fish species, and recreation comparison.
Grafton Millpond and Thiensville Millpond both received the same overall water quality grade of F (Very Poor). Both are in Ozaukee County, Wisconsin.
Both Grafton Millpond and Thiensville Millpond sit in Wisconsin. A same-state comparison strips out the state-level water-quality regime as a variable: any grade differences here are about the lakes themselves, not the agencies grading them. These two are within a letter of each other on the rubric — Grafton Millpond (F) versus Thiensville Millpond (F). The deciding factors for a recreational visitor are likely physical (depth, access, fish species) rather than water-quality differences.
With grades this close, the choice between the two lakes turns on non-water-quality factors: depth, fish species, public access, distance from home. The per-lake pages below cover all of those.
