"Redford – Culturally Diverse"

Redford seems to be a melting pot of different races, making the city pretty unique, compared to some surrounding areas. No one used to ever talk about moving to or even hanging out in Redford, but it slowly is making a name for itself. Of course, this could be due to White Rhino Sports Bar that has the most amazing and crazy pizza combinations, as well as Bullfrog Bar & Grill, which is voted as having the hottest staff in Michigan!

Redford is certainly not a bad place to raise a family. The vast majority of residents with children have grown up here themselves, so there is a solid sense of community. You really cannot complain too much about the school district, and there are 15 parks to enjoy. These aren’t just ordinary parks with trails and playgrounds either. Redford offers ball diamonds, a skate park, an outdoor ice rink and a new splash park, so there is always something fun to do that doesn’t involve video games. There are also three great hospitals minutes away in Livonia, Farmington Hills and Garden City.

Although the selection of restaurants could be better, you will find establishments with every cuisine you could possibly want in the surrounding cities.
Pros
  • Fantatic Selection of Parks
  • Nearby Exellent Hospitals
  • Strong Sense of Community
Cons
  • Not much for Shopping or Fine-dining Restaurants
Recommended for
