I love the city of Southfield! Beautiful tree lines streets, a dog leash law, safe neighborhoods, every possible store is in close proximity. The expressways are close and easily accessible. The police officers are friendly and respond in a timely fashion if needed. The community leaders are in the neighborhoods and the community is very diverse. Neighbors are friendly, but everyone kind of stays in their own lane. They are however, there if you need them. I've been a homeowner for 7 years and wouldn't want to live anywhere else. I love my city!
I love Southfield because it’s a very healthy and peaceful place to live. This area has a lot of recreational activities and parks that are great for exercise, peaceful walks and family fun! I would not change anything about Southfield.
Southfield is a diversity suburb of Detroit that offers great job and housing opportunities, as well as great places for families to visit and a great nightlife! People in Southfield are welcoming and diverse in political and religious affiliations.
