Bloomfield Hills Historical Facts

Bloomfield Hills, Michigan has its origins in the creation of Oakland County during the summer of 1820. Oakland County, which was mainly a large farming area, was split into two townships (Pontiac Township and Bloomfield Township).

It wasn't until the beginning of the 20th century that industry started to take over and there was a shift in the way the land was utilized. Many of Detroit's wealthy residents began buying up the land and from there, Bloomfield Hills transitioned from a settlement into a community.

The Cranbrook Educational Community, which opened in 1926, is considered a National Historic Landmark and boasts a sprawling campus known for its architecture. Fortunately, beyond the architecture, the Cranbrook Schools are considered some of the best in the country offering a boarding college preparatory upper school.

With the opening of the Detroit Skating Club, many world-class figure skaters trained their way to the gold including Tara Lipinski and Todd Eldridge.
