Hello there,


I was hoping to get some advice. We are thinking of coming to detroit to stay for approx 2 years. Me, my husband and our young teen age son. We don`t have any family there, so we need to find a place that is close to the school and yet affordable. As we are coming with only our clothes we will need to purchase house hold stuff. My first thought was a Family friendly mobile home park, but apon looking at them and reading reviews, I am now not so sure. Has anyone got any suggestions what would be a good option?

Kindest regards and thank you


MTT

You might want to look at this community in Rochester. I know someone who lives there and it is in a safe area, and a pretty nice place as far as mobile home parks go. https://www.mhvillage.com/Communitie....php?key=15077

Moving into Detroit proper or the burbs? There is a difference..

How far from Detroit are you willing to look? Is work in Detroit?

Budget?

Schools?

If you have a young teenage son is he a good student academically? You certainly want to pay attention to the schools in the area he would be attending, unless you can afford a private school. We have charter schools in Michigan that are free but not all charter schools are 'good' by a long shot. The good ones tend to fill up quickly and lack openings.
