It all started here.
Led by the Detroit drop-off, Wayne County recorded an 11.7% population loss. And in terms of cities and townships that lost people, the level of population decline is very much a ripple effect outward from Detroit – the further you get away from it the more muted the losses.
Local communities though, proved somewhat of an exception to that rule. Of the 19 communities that border Detroit, Dearborn was the only one that actually recorded a population increase, going from 97,775 in 2000 to 98,153 in 2010, or a 0.5 percent increase. Dearborn Heights, meanwhile, did lose 0.8 percent of its population compared to the last Census, going from 58,264 to 57,774. Still, that was the third-lowest population loss total for the 19 Detroit border cities, which averaged 4.9 percent.
Incorporated in 1960, Dearborn Heights is part of a cluster of western suburbs, including Inkster and Garden City, located 17 miles west of downtown Detroit.
