We've worked and lived in Waterford Township for what seems like forever. Waterford always get's such a bad rap when it comes to comparisons to the surroundingl communities. But you know - it's really a pretty cool place to live. If you're looking for fine dining, NOT. We do have some great Mexican and Thai places, some pretty good bars and a PANERA'S AND A STARBUCKS in a pinch. I highlight those last two places because they are our official 'Waterford satellite' offices. Some of the things we like best about Waterford
- We love all the lakes. If you ever just need to go to the beach in the summer you're never more than a couple miles away. If you want to live on the water there is every price range and lake type available in Waterford.
- Lots of places to walk. We both love to walk and there are lots great places to walk around the center of Waterford.
- Parks - there are lots of great parks, a wonderful water park, the Fridge and the Drayton Plains Nature Center
- You can get to anywhere from here. I can quickly get to Clarkston, Pontiac, White Lake, West Bloomfield, Auburn Hills and Bloomfield Hills in literally minutes.
- It's a community for everyone. Lots of diversity, lots of seniors, lots of first time homebuyers.
- Schools - Well we're working on them. The schools have improved quite a bit in the time since we first moved here. As an ex teacher myself I know that one of the main parts of that equation are the parents so you can never count on only the school system totally.
- It's AFFORDABLE - REALLY AFFORDABLE. When you compare housing prices you'll see that you can buy a great home in a great neighborhood near parks, lakes, and trails without breaking the bank!
So when you're considering your first, or maybe your last home don't rule out Waterford. Take a look around and see what you might be missing.
