Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

The 1990s TV show “Tool Time” was about a funny, sweet family that lived in a charming Michigan suburb. The show's star, Tim Allen, grew up in Birmingham, Michigan. Birmingham seems just like the same pleasant, old-fashioned little town in the show. Coincidence? I think not.

Birmingham may have originated as a Native American town in the 1800s, but today it’s one of the most popular suburbs for hip young singles and families. Birmingham is so appealing because it has tons of quirky, unique downtown shopping options, a walkable downtown area and great schools. Residents are often active, successful and well educated. The culture embraces cafes, independent shops and galleries over malls and chain restaurants. At the same time, if you want major retail chains, they’re only a couple miles away.

Moving to Birmingham

Birmingham tries hard to attract and retain stable residents. If you want to move to Birmingham, make sure your credit report is in order, you have good rental references and enough money for security deposits, including first and last months’ rent. Some landlords may allow pets, but require additional deposits, fees and documentation.

In general, you should allow extra time for your apartment search if you need to accommodate a family or pets. Three-bedroom apartments are highly coveted because so many families want their kids to attend Birmingham schools, so there may be a waiting list.

You’re not alone if you’re looking for rental housing in Birmingham. Whether you’re looking for a one-bedroom apartment or three-bedroom townhome, the odds are good that you can find a clean, comfortable place to live right in the heart of this safe and friendly suburb. If you need to expand your search in Oakland County, most of the little towns right next to Birmingham area also comparably appealing. Royal Oak has a similarly funky character as Birmingham, Troy is very new and polished, and Bloomfield Hills is more exclusive than Birmingham and less trendy.

Life in Birmingham

Birmingham is mostly a commuter town. A majority of Birmingham residents work in other Oakland County and metro Detroit suburbs, but choose to spend weekend leisure time in the downtown Birmingham district. Fortunately, Birmingham offers very easy access to main thoroughfares like Woodward Ave and nearby highways like I-75 and I-696. So, if you decide to call this place home, be sure to get a car.

Birmingham is suburban - but it's not sleepy. If you want entertainment close to your house, Birmingham might be a great place to choose -- the area is home to the Royal Oak Music Theatre, hosting some of the greatest contemporary musical talents regularly. Also -- the proximity to Detroit is key here. Go into the big city to see the Detroit Institute of Arts, or a show or monvie at one of the many theaters throughout town.
