Southwest Detroit community near Ford Motor Company offices
Whether residents regularly go shopping at Fairlane Town Center, work at Ford Motor Company World Headquarters or worship at the Islamic Center of America, Allen Park’s location between Interstates 94 and 75 gives it access to the greater Detroit area. “People who want to live on the outskirts of Detroit move to Allen Park,” says Miranda Morrow, licensed real estate broker at National Realty Centers with over 15 years of experience. Compared to other Detroit neighborhoods, “it’s more established. It’s quiet and settled.” A well-maintained community with access to big city conveniences, Allen Park also offers a wealth of active businesses and restaurants in the heart of town.

Ranch-style and Colonial Revivals in established Allen Park
Mature trees cast shade on sidewalks in front of homes. The area is fully developed, so new builds are rare; the existing homes have instead been well-kept and many boast recently renovated interiors. Allen Park contains mostly three-bedroom midcentury brick ranch-style homes costing between $170,000 and $250,000. However, there are some two-story Colonial Revivals and homes dating back to the 1920s. There is only a minor risk of flooding to area homes, but roads may flood occasionally.
