Dearborn Heights is a city located in Wayne County, in the U.S. state of Michigan. It is a suburb of Detroit, and is a part of the Detroit Metropolitan Statistical Area. It is currently home to a population of over 56,600 total residents. Though settlement of the area dates back to around the founding of Detroit itself, Dearborn Heights would not become an incorporated community until 1960, after Detroit was already a bustling center of industry and commerce in the Great Lakes region. Dearborn Heights saw an influx in population during the 1970’s and 80’s as people were leaving crime-ridden Detroit for the safety of the suburbs, though as Detroit recovers Dearborn Heights, like other suburbs, is starting to see a shift away from population growth as more people start moving back into the cleaned-up cities once again.

Auto Transport to Dearborn Heights Tips and Tricks
Auto transport to Dearborn Heights shouldn’t be all that difficult to find as it is a major suburb of a major city that sees a lot of car shipping traffic during most times of the year. Detroit is a recovering city, and recent investment in the city from businesses and the like have slowly started turning Detroit, and by extension the Detroit metro area, into a burgeoning city that is attracting new residents. This bodes well for customers trying to ship a vehicle to or from the Detroit area, as it helps keep prices lower. Carriers can run routes into and out of Detroit and its metro area relatively cheaply, which means lower prices for customers as it’s a fairly popular area to ship anyway. Competition on major routes is high among carriers, so they have to keep their prices lower to keep their trucks full. Talk to an agent for more information about this and other aspects of the vehicle shipping industry.
