You will hear about a rape case a few times a year as well. Farmington Hills also has a lot of smaller crimes such as dunk driving and driving without a license. These happen weekly in this town. | | Farmington Hills has many good areas to be in. I would recommend that if possible you stay away from the Kendallwood Apartments as i have heard that it can be quite noisy at times. I would recommend living on or near Kimberly Court. This is a very nice area and most of the homes are only a year or two old. The yards are a bit small but the houses are big. These are newer homes so keep in mind that they will be very energy efficient and have very nice features. Prices range in this area a lot by what you want in your home. Some of the homes can be nearly $400,000. Another area that is a bit more affordable is the Orchard Lake Road area. The homes in this neighborhood are older and may need a few updates but you can not beat the prices. Some of the homes in this neighborhood go for as low as $60,000. You will also get a larger yard in this area of town. | | There are many types of races that live in Farmington Hills. The majority of the town is made up of the white race. The second most common race you will see is the black race. This town seems to be getting more blacks every year but still not enough that to equal out to the whites. Occasionally you will see an Asian or a Hispanic as well but they are far and few between. The best type to fit in this town would be the middle class. Also blacks and whites fit in better being that the majority of the population is one or the other. There are few lower class families here as well. Most of the residents are very welcoming to all types of people. I would just really get the feel of someone in the town before you just invite them over or become friends. |

You will have your everyday traffic and you may here some planes that fly over going to the airport not far from Farmington Hills. | | I would compare Farmington Hills to Novi, MI. They are a very close to each other. The commute from Farmington Hills to Novi is about 8-12 minutes. Farmington Hills is on the outskirts of Novi. Both of these towns have a lot to offer. They both have plenty of shopping for everyday living. I like that Farmington Hills seems to be a little more smooth flowing pace as to where Novi seems to be a little more pushy at times.
