Rouge Park, Bell Creek County Park, and Eliza Howell Park sit within this expansive area. Although the west side of the city features a sense of small-town charm, residents sit less than 15 miles outside of Downtown Detroit, so commuting to the city for work or play is a breeze. West Side Detroit is mainly residential, but there are supermarkets, casual restaurants, and small businesses spread throughout the area.
