The fight may not have matched the Hatfields and the McCoys, but Dearborn Heights had its own little battle going with the city of Inkster, a battle in which Dearborn Heights was named as victor.
Dearborn Heights has a long history of coming out on top, starting with the battle surrounding its incorporation in 1960. On a map, the 11-square-mile city of more than 56,000 residents is shaped like a dog head and dog body connected together by a long, thin strip of neck. That neck strip travels directly through Inkster, which is why Inkster made such a stink fighting Dearborn Heights, even delaying its first mayor taking office for three whole years. By 1963, however, Dearborn Heights officially won the battle and this metro Detroit area city has been ballooning with pride ever since. View Dearborn Heights City Guide
