Farmington Hills Mayor Theresa Rich officiated 17 weddings in her first 107 days in office; they included 50-year residents of the Michigan city, as well as people from China, Ukraine and South Africa. Farmington Hills is part of the Farmington community, a combination of the neighboring cities of Farmington and Farmington Hills. Farmington is a Detroit suburb with an eclectic cultural footprint. A fifth of Farmington Hills residents were born outside the U.S., bringing a mix of cuisine and more than 60 languages to the surrounding community of 95,000 people. Meanwhile, the city has invested in public arts since 2010, with photographs, oil paintings and sculptures created by Farmington and Farmington Hills artists decorating city property. Although Farmington and Farmington Hills are separate municipalities, they share a school district, public services and an identity. “If you asked nine out of 10 residents of Farmington or Farmington Hills, I don’t know if they’d be able to tell you where the borders are,” Rich explains.
Historic Farmington acts as the downtown for both Farmington and Farmington Hils.

Iraqi dishes at Ahlan Middle Eastern Cuisine
The dining scene is about as diverse as the population. The Tonon family opened Café Cortina in the 1970s, and the Italian eatery today hosts dinner parties and weddings. Meanwhile, Ahlan Middle Eastern Cuisine serves lamb shank tashreeb and other Iraqi dishes. The assortment of grocery stores includes supermarkets, Mediterranean grocers and organic food stores. The compact city of Farmington acts as the community’s downtown, with locally run bars, boutiques and cafes. Three hospitals stand in or near Farmington, while residents can choose to worship at one of the community’s churches, mosques or temples, as well as its synagogue.

Art on the Grand showcases local creativity
One of the marquee community events is June’s Art on the Grand. Attendees stroll down Grand River Avenue, flanked by tents of artists selling their ceramics, photography and other works. The 150-year-old Longacre House hosts weddings and other private events. On Valentine’s Day 2024, the community started a new annual tradition at the house. Rich officiated 44 couples with 1,000 years of marriage between them as they renewed their vows.
Swimming, ziplining and 3D printing at The Hawk
The government of Farmington Hills leveled up its recreation scene when it converted a shuttered high school to The Hawk, a 245,000-square-foot community center. Inside, locals ride a zip line into a pool, performers take stage at the 766-seat theater and others use saws and 3D printers at the Makerspace. In 2024, The Hawk hosted the NFL Draft’s On the Clock Tour, which brought games, inflatables and the Detroit Lions mascot to The Hawk ahead of the NFL Draft in Detroit. More than a dozen parks dot Farmington and Farmington Hills, along with an ice arena, a nature center and an archery range.

Single-family suburbs throughout Farmington
Single-family homes and apartments are in supply across Farmington, though the community is primarily inhabited by homeowners. Ranch homes and Tudor-inspired houses are often clustered into subdivisions. One example is Glen Orchard, a community built on an orchard in the mid-20th century, where apple trees still grow in some yards. Neighbors greet each other at the bus stop each morning, and they mingle at the annual September picnic, says Debby Brauer, co-president of Glen Orchard Civic Association. It has the suburban experience of proximity to neighbors, but enough green space surrounds the neighborhood that deer are common guests. “My husband asks when we’re moving out, and I say, ‘We’re not,’” Brauer says. “They’re going to have to carry us out.” In Farmington, one-bedroom condo prices start around $100,000, while two-bedroom houses also begin in the low $100,000s. A five-bedroom custom home may cost as much as $1.4 million.
