Detroit’s vibrant Midtown area is arguably the cultural hub of the city, packing some of Detroit’s most prestigious institutions into a single neighborhood. This part of town largely revolves around the Wayne State University campus, which dominates the neighborhood’s landscape. Serving a unique and diverse population of nearly 30,000 students, the university contributes a lively cultural and intellectual atmosphere, amplified by the neighboring Art Center and Medical Center.
With countless museums, theaters, and galleries within just a few blocks, Midtown Detroit residents enjoy direct access to the fine and performing arts.

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.
