Sterling Heights, Michigan

The city of Sterling Heights is located in towards the southeastern edge of Michigan in Macomb County. As one of the core suburbs of Detroit, this quaint city enjoys an elevated socioeconomic status. According to the 2010 census, it has a population of just over 129,000. This makes it one of the largest suburbs in metropolitain Detroit, as well as the fourth largest city in Michigan.

The city enjoys a strategic location within this region. It sits on two major thoroughfares, namely the M-53 and M-59. Furthermore, it is also only 16 miles from downtown Detroit. This makes it easy for people to commute to and from work via various state and local highways. The city is also renowned for its low crime rate, making it one of the safest cities in the state.

Sterling Heights occupies an approximate area of 36.8 square miles. It is located within the Clinton watershed, with a number of the river’s tributaries flowing through the city. A combination of lush landscapes, beautiful river scenery and a balmy climate has made Sterling Heights one of the most desirable places to live, work and play in in Michigan.

History

The first people to inhabit the area now known as Sterling Heights lived in the fertile area along the river more than 11,000 years ago. Furthermore, archaeologists have discovered artifacts that point to the Paleo Indians living in the area from as early as 9,000 B.C. This discovery remains Sterling Heights’ greatest historical find to date. These early inhabitants survived by hunting mammoth, caribou and mastodons.

The Clinton River continued to play a pivotal role in the development of this area. The initial Native American inhabitants called it “Nottawaseppi” before its name was changed to Huron River, and later Clinton River in 1824. The area started out as a booming agricultural settlement, with farmers taking advantage of the rich soils along the river. By 1832, the settlement had grown into a recognized township and established a thriving industry from 100-acre corn and wheat farms, as well as rearing sheep, cattle and horses.

By 1880, Sterling Township had grown to be a thriving rural area with a population of just over 2,000 people. The arrival of the Romeo and Utica Stage Line made traveling to larger settlements in the surrounding area safer and easier. This convenience of both waterway and railway transportation also spurred further development of the township.

In the mid-1950’s successful manufacturers began looking for viable opportunities outside Detroit. Their search led them to Sterling Township, and large-Scale industries started setting up shop in the area. Early entrants included iconic brands like the Ford Motor Company, Briggs Manufacturing, LTV Missile Plant and Chrysler Corporation.

As a result, many plant workers moved into Sterling Township to take advantage of these emerging opportunities. This led to the development of numerous “dream communities,” like Dresden Village, in subdivisions within the township, complete with plans for opulent housing and rail transportation. However, the boom soon led to various challenges such as inadequate drainage systems and battles over land.

Ironically, the latter led to a massive expansion for Sterling Township. Residents were opposed to incorporating portions of the town into large cities like Warren, Moravian Hills and Dresden. This led to a name change for the town to Sterling Heights, and its official incorporation as a city in 1968. This change in status led to the development of master plans, zoning and development plans, infrastructure like roads and sanitary sewers and crucial services like the police and fire departments.

Today, Sterling Heights is considered one of the premier parts of the greater Detroit Metro area. Families love it because it is a safe, friendly place to raise children within range of good schools. The city also offers world-class services and amenities while maintaining a low rate of taxation. Furthermore, it has won numerous accolades, including Money Magazine’s Top 20 “Best Small Cities” to live in.
