Community Profile

Bloomfield Hills is a community of residents that value strongly the traditions of quiet, rural residential properties.  The community is the home to the internationally renowned Cranbrook Institute of Science and Art, the exclusive Bloomfield Hills Country Club and the Bloomfield Open Hunt Club.  This is a community that wishes little change other than continually reliable and improving public services.  Change occurs only with deliberate, active participation by residents.

Bloomfield Hills is a community whose residents hold professional or executive positions of authority (many associated with the major automakers or other Fortune 500 businesses) or high profile positions in professional sports.  Many have chosen to live and remain in Bloomfield Hills for the quiet, wooded lots, privacy and stately homes.

The city is zoned almost exclusively for large lot estate residences.  Less than 5 percent of the property is zoned for commercial development, all adjacent to Woodward Avenue and East Long Lake Road.

Bloomfield Hills encompasses 5 square miles and is located southwesterly of the I-75 corridor in the eastern portion of Oakland County, Michigan.  The City is bordered to the south by the City of Birmingham.  Its northern, western and eastern borders are with Bloomfield Township.
