Lathrup Village is a beautiful suburb about 20 miles northwest of Detroit. Houses and mid-rise apartments are available for every budget from affordable to upscale. With lush neighborhood parks and plenty of amenities located in or near town, Lathrup is perfect for renters looking for a quiet living environment. Along with being between two large commercial hubs, Lathrup has several small businesses, medical offices, restaurants, and salons located along Southfield Road. Like most small towns, residents are big on community so it’s common to see neighbors chatting it up while grabbing the mail. Lathrup is liveliest during summer when the town hosts a variety of events including outdoor concerts, art festivals, and themed parties. Excellent proximity to Detroit combined with all of these perks heightens allure for commuters and downtown goers.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
