Neighborhood

Situated about eight miles north of Downtown Detroit, Palmer Park blends natural beauty and historic architecture in a community-oriented environment. Dense rows of lush trees line the streets in Palmer Park, separating the elegant houses and vintage apartments from the community’s main commercial thoroughfares.

Palmer Park’s namesake park is a neighborhood landmark, offering the community hiking and biking trails, tennis courts, an ornate fountain, and an 18-hole golf course to explore. In addition to a peaceful, park-like locale, Palmer Park provides residents with convenience to a slew of everyday amenities strewn along Woodward Avenue and McNichols Road.

Proximity to the University of Detroit Mercy and Marygrove College make the neighborhood a top choice for many students, faculty, and staff looking for a rental close to campus. Nearby Interstate 75 connects Palmer Park to the rest of Greater Detroit with ease.
