Right, Birmingham is adjacent to the city of Bloomfield Hills and Bloomfield Township, 2 of the wealthiest communities in the state of Michigan, and downtown Birmingham is only 2.5 miles away from the most upscale mall in the state - the Somerset Collection.
But Oakland doesn't have a huge affluent 40 square mile, 150,000 person community like Naperville, although Farmington/Farmington Hills is a combined 36-square mile/90,000 people, but its downtown is tiny.
