While Redford has convenient connections to familiar larger cities, it holds its own shine with many endearing qualities of a small town. This charter township’s 11.25 square miles include fun community events, well-maintained parks and cozy restaurants. Here, residents can enjoy the fruits of suburban-esque living without the stress of urban chaos.
There are three signature events that Redford residents can look forward to attending every year. The Township Festival in June includes carnival rides and an annual competition between the township’s employees and the Chamber of Commerce. In September, Oktoberfest pays homage to the area’s German heritage with its food, music and German-sausage-throwing contest. The township celebrates Christmas with Olde Fashioned Holidays in early December, holding festivities like a tree lighting ceremony, photo ops with Santa Claus and even a petting zoo. Movie in the Cemetery nights allow residents to experience movies in a spooky setting. Heritage Day at the Museum celebrates Redford’s local history with food, entertainment and old-fashioned arts and crafts. They can also go bowling at Mayflower Lanes or visit the Redford Township District Library to check out materials and attend special events.

The township includes 12 parks, each one a great place for residents to play, exercise or relax outdoors. Handy Park is especially friendly to little ones, with its playground and a “handy” splash pad for warmer days. For those who enjoy playing or spectating outdoor sports, Bell Creek County Park includes soccer fields and baseball diamonds. There is also Glenhurst Golf Course, an 18-hole public course.
Many of the dining establishments in Redford have their own unique qualities. For example, Murphy’s Restaurant has been in business for over forty years and serves authentic Irish fare to the community. When kitchen items are running low, residents can head over to Value Center Marketplace, ALDI and Joe Randazzo’s Fruit & Vegetable Inc. There are also several boutiques and small businesses great for leisurely shopping trips.
Many of the township’s residential areas have their own neighborhood associations, showing an individual pride and personality with each one.
