Huron Township offers plenty of housing and outdoor fun
Located south of Detroit Metropolitan Airport, Huron Township provides residents with multiple single-family home options close to job centers and outdoor attractions. The Huron River flows through the township, providing its namesake and a source of entertainment. The township has multiple sources of employment, including logistics centers belonging to Amazon and Swift Transportation, and manufacturers Autokinition Global Group and Blue Diamond Steel Casting. The area also has multiple unincorporated communities and is within commuting distance of Detroit. “It's just a great place to live if you want some space,” says Glenn Silvenis, broker/owner at Re/Max Crossroads, Inc., who sells in the community. “[If] you want a neighborhood you want to be proud to live in, that’s Huron Township. The schools are very good; it's a good place to be. I-275 runs through [it, so] it's a preferred location.”

Weather and noise risks in Huron Township
According to flood maps from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, there is a risk of flooding along the Huron River. While the locale is near the airport, Silvenis says plane noise is not a factor as “the airport has changed some of their flight paths and engines, so you're not getting as much noise as you used to .” A train line runs through New Boston, causing sound.
