With its proximity to Detroit, quality schools, and numerous recreational opportunities, the Rochester area is a perfect place to raise a family. Museums and golf courses are nearby, and Detroit’s sporting events, concerts and more are mere minutes away.
The old, well-established neighborhoods of the past have given away to gorgeous new residential developments, including Walnut Brook Estates in Rochester Hills. This 85-acre gated community offers a serene location bordered by Pine Trace Country Club, as well as magnificent architecture. All neighborhoods in Rochester Hills have implemented Neighborhood Watch Programs to help keep them safe.
The Rochester area is also a great locale for pet-lovers. More than 40 businesses, from national supply stores to veterinarians, will meet the needs of your furry family members. The area has long had an affinity for animals. In the first half of the 20th century, the Western Knitting Mill was one of the largest producers of wool socks for the U.S. Military, and the entire region was well-known for its sheep farms. Another example of the area’s fondness for animals is Leader Dogs for the Blind, an international organization based in Rochester that offers free training for guide dogs and their owners. It is not uncommon to see a happy partnership walking around downtown.
In addition, Oakland Township has worked hard to maintain the wide open spaces and undeveloped acreage that their over 15,000 residents enjoy. They are firmly established as a quality residential area with gated communities, charming homes and over 900 acres of parkland. Working in conjunction with Rochester and Rochester Hills, Oakland Township is dedicated to making the area a great place to live.
