Edit
The Tireman neighborhood lies about six miles northwest of Downtown Detroit. It is framed by I-96 and I-94, with the interchange forming the southeastern tip of the neighborhood. Homes and condos dominate the rental properties available, but there are a few apartment complexes in the area. Although Tireman has a few stores and restaurants, most locals travel outside of the neighborhood to find a wider variety of shopping and dining options.
For a fun day outdoors, head 15 minutes west to River Rouge Park. Enjoy a nature walk, check out the butterflies in the butterfly garden, or get some exercise by biking, running, or walking on the paved trails throughout the park. On warmer days in the summer, take a swim in the public pool.
