Macomb, MI Real Estate

Macomb Township is a township of Macomb County in the U.S. state of Michigan. It is a suburb of Detroit and part of the Metro Detroit Area. The population was 50,478 at the 2000 census. The early founders of Macomb Township arrived in the early 1800s in search of flat and fertile farm land, like that near the Clinton River. Many of these early settlers were of German descent, and the German influences remain today. The Township of Macomb was officially approved by the Legislative Council on March 7, 1834.

Macomb Township was also a large part of the lumber and logging industry of Southeast Michigan in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Logs would be transported south from Wolcott Mill in Ray Township, down the Middle Branch Clinton River to sawmills. This route became known as Romeo Plank, and is the name of the modern-day road that runs down the same route.

Residents are served by the Clinton-Macomb Public Library [1].

There are no incorporated municipalities within the township, though most of the area, especially the southern portion is part of the Detroit metropolitan area.
