Pewaukee is a village in Waukesha County, Wisconsin, United States.

The present-day village of Pewaukee was settled in about 1837 by the Deacon Asa Clark of Lunenburg, Vermont, when he erected a hotel, sawmill, and church in this location.

[5][6] Pewaukee is constructed upon aki or (w)aukee, which means "land" or "location" in several Algonquian languages.

The village of Pewaukee is home to one of the three locations of Dynex/Rivett Inc., a manufacturer of hydraulic components and systems.

Pewaukee is also the home of Logic Design Corporation, the developers of Global Edge Engineering and Manufacturing Software.

Another business located in Pewaukee is PM Plastics, a custom injection molding company.

Opened in 2002 across from the beach on Pewaukee Lake, Old Main Street replicates the charm of a late 1800s building with modern up to date facilities.

It is the home of small businesses that include restaurants (Seesters and The Chocolate Factory), a salon, a bakery, a pilates/yoga/barre studio, a bead shop, a home builder, a construction management firm, a recruitment firm (Joel Frank & Associates), and a software company (Logic Design Corporation).

The district includes four separate buildings all contained in a single-campus environment.

WCTC has a small but modern campus in Pewaukee within the heart of the lake country area.
