Review of Royal Oak, Michigan


High Taxes, Poor Education
Star Rating - 5/10/2007
I have lived in Royal Oak my entire life and I am sad to see what it has become. I am a late twenty-something mother of two with a college education who finds Royal Oak to be lacking in so many ways. The property taxes are ridiculous, the downtown area is not family friendly and is expensive to patronize. The schools are continuing a downhill slide to substandard education and are unsafe.
We are looking into moving out of the Metro-Detroit Area.
