Lincoln Park is a great value!

Lincoln Park has many amazing homes. The south end of the city consists mainly of brick colonials, bungalows, and ranches built between the 1920's and 1950's. The area along Emmons Blvd is lined with stately homes, and many would agree that this is the most desirable are to live in the city. The schools are not great, however there not terrible (much better than inner-city schools). This shouldn't be a problem though, most schools in the area are school of choice (this means you can live in one city and attend public school in a neighboring city). The area also has many private (mainly Catholic) schools, that offer a great education. Lincoln Park is located about 10 miles from downtown Detroit (very accessible via I-75 or Fort street). Lincoln Park itself has decent shopping, but the neighboring cities of Allen Park and Dearborn offer pretty much anything you'd need. With in 10 miles of Lincoln Park there are 4 Starbuck's (plus a few more w/in stores), Barnes & Noble, Bed Bath & Beyond, World Market, Best Buy, 3 Target's, and tons of great restaurants. If you're looking for a great place to live, consider Lincoln Park.
