West Bloomfield Historical Facts

West Bloomfield started on Cass Lake, where farmers and merchants utilized the land, but was founded officially in 1833, when Bloomfield Township was divided into two portions. It was in 1895 that residents in Pontiac and Detroit started to spend their weekends up in the area. A simple trolley line brought them to the area before it was officially known as West Bloomfield. Cottages began popping up along Orchard Lake Road in the 1950s.

Currently, the Greater West Bloomfield Historical Society hosts many of the archives dating back decades about West Bloomfield and the surrounding area. From trolley systems to historically significant sites, they have lots of information, records and documents worth checking out.
