COMMUNITY PROFILE Bloomfield Hills

Bloomfield Hills

Although Bloomfield Hills is small in size (five square miles) and is limited in population it features some of the most beautiful residential settings in the country with an exclusive quality of life.

Houses designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, Eero Saarinen, J. Robert F. Swanson and Minoru Yamasaki can be found along its winding residential roads. Many of these estates are graciously secluded behind ivied walls and lush landscaping. Caretaker or in-law cottages, terraced gardens and ponds, private tennis courts and swimming pools are standard features for these one-of-a-kind estates. New construction stays in step with the old with the new enclaves offering unparallel luxury for high achieving residents, many of whom are leaders in business, the professions, education and the arts.

Private schools, religious institutions and private clubs occupy approximately 10-15% of Bloomfield Hills. The Cranbrook Educational Community alone covers 315 acres. While most of these clubs and institutions are not part of the tax base they do make an outsized contribution, which cannot be duplicated or replaced, to the unique social, spiritual and intellectual lifestyle of Bloomfield Hills.
