Disappearing cities of Metro Detroit: St. Clair Shores, Michigan

It all started here.

Detroit News, 5/24/2018

Metro Detroit's biggest gainers were once again mostly suburban townships where growth has recently been most dramatic: Macomb Township, at 89,479, Canton Township, at 91,791, and Lyon Township at 19,912. 

"There's no lessening of the interest in outlying townships," Metzger said. "People are still looking for big houses, big lots with low taxes."
