Raising a family in Farmington Hills -thoughts?
Alright, I'm a teacher here and Median household income is $101,863, which feels pretty solid for the area. Homes are going for about $333,200 on average. Crime rate is something to consider -Farmington Hills sits at 107.1 per 100K. Poverty rate is 4.3%, which is pretty low. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.
Pros:
- Good job market
- Growing food scene
- Low taxes
- Easy commute
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Limited nightlife
- Limited dining options
- High property taxes
- Poor road conditions
- Not enough green space
