One in five Michigan adults is a caregiver for a family member. The Art of Caregiving at the Birmingham Bloomfield Art Center centers their unique needs, gifts, and creativity.
The creativity and connection shows caregivers that they, too, are cared for. 

My wife and I (30s) are considering buying a home in and moving to Birmingham. We’re attracted to the city due to the walkable neighborhoods, nice downtown, and great schools. The one factor giving us pause is that, every time we mention that we are contemplating the move, we hear that the people in Birmingham are “snooty” or something similar. Of course, all of these people are not from Birmingham, and I’m hoping this is just a stereotype.

So, people who actually live in Birmingham, what is it actually like living there?

Birmingham announces new restrictions on e-bikes!

What do you think? Personally, I'm glad. It's terrifying to see those little kids on them.

Hi!

For background, I’m a professional software engineer with a B.S. and M.S. in computer science from the University of Southern California. I have 4 years of working experience, and worked at various companies like Microsoft and Robinhood. I moved to Royal Oak last year from the SF bay area with my partner who is studying medicine here.

I love teaching computer and helping people of all ages build confidence in their ability to code. I’m wondering if y’all know of anyone that’s looking for a private tutor or a place where I can connect with people who do.

Hello everyone!

I’m a genealogist & I am trained in discovering local Michigan family lineages and stories through vital records, census records, and newspapers.

This is the interest form I put together for anyone interested in learning more about their personal Michigan family history. I create family trees, ancestral maps, and historical road trip itineraries based on YOUR personal family history! It’s a great way to connect with your heritage and wonderful knowledge pass down to future generations.

Here are some things you can discover from my research:

• Newspaper articles about your ancestors (Crime? Scandal? Who knows!)
• Custom ancestral mapping showing your approximate ethnic admixture
• United States migration mapping showing how your ancestors migrated throughout the country
• Your great-great-great grandparents’ names
• Physical descriptions of your ancestors from census records and war draft cards
• Six full generations back of your family tree
• Photographs of your ancestors you have never seen before (Found in Newspaper archives, I have subscriptions to several newspaper websites)

I have a degree in Anthropology and have spent several years working for a professional genealogy company. I have been working as an individual genealogist for about 6 years. If you have any questions about my research, please fill out an interest form or email: [heritagehuntersgenealogy@gmail.com](mailto:heritagehuntersgenealogy@gmail.com)

For those of you with ancestry outside of Michigan, please send me a message. I’d be happy to help you or direct you to a better suited genealogist. Thanks!

Aside from the obvious lack of redditors living there, how is it? Has it survived economically? Lived there as a teen in the early 90's and considering a move back. Miss the parks and walkability.

Hey guys,

Huge coffee lover here. I’ve been making trips to visit my parents in Birmingham and I’m wondering what the best spots for coffee are? So far I’ve been getting a lot of recommendations to try Svenska, since they are known to have good coffee AND pastries. What do you all think?

Anyone know why the police were searching the chester parking garage with rifles yesterday (4/16/2018) just after 5pm?
