The City of Westland is the 10th largest city in Michigan with a population of over 86,000. The City's residential development is an excellent blend single- family homes, apartments and condominiums. This broad selection of housing opportunities is complimented by over 1500 acres of well-maintained parks and nature trails, a highly rated municipal golf course, a skate park and ice arena, a state-of-the-art Library, and novel city park themes that are fun and family-friendly. Westland has the location, the land, the infrastructure, and the leadership, under Mayor, Kevin Coleman, to attract new industry and help existing businesses redevelop properties and to maintain competitiveness in today's global economy. Six modern platted industrial parks on 320 acres are served by class “A” internal roads, with up to date utilities and rail access available within two of the parks. Westland is conveniently located within the center of southeastern Michigan's expressway system, minutes north of Detroit Metropolitan Airport, and ideally located between downtown Detroit and Ann Arbor. Westland Shopping center, one of the country’s original four regional malls, boasts 80 retail stores and has anchored Westland’s commercial district for more than 30 years. Westland’s diversity and progressive planning offers residents a wide variety of life experiences.
