City - Birmingham

Thirty minutes north of downtown Detroit sits Birmingham, an upscale suburb full of historic architecture, scenic parks, and vibrant personality. The city enjoys an exceptionally low crime rate, top-notch schools, and all-around high scores for livability. The centrally-located downtown area (surrounding the intersection of West Maple Road and Old Woodward Avenue) contains a lively mix of locally-owned shops, restaurants of every description, and nightlife activities. Much of the city is exceptionally walkable, thanks to a pedestrian-focused layout plan implemented in the 1990s, meaning that all these wonderful things will be just a few steps outside the front door of your new Birmingham apartment.

School data provided by GreatSchools The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
