COMMUNITY DESCRIPTION This plan has been created for the City of Southfield, a residential community and business center in southeastern Michigan. Southfield borders the City of Detroit and also the communities of Farmington Hills, Redford Township, Franklin, Bingham Farms, Royal Oak Township, Berkley and Oak Park. This plan is intended to primarily address municipal park development, land acquisition for parks and parks and recreation facilities. The secondary purpose of the plan is to plan for the needs of parks and recreation programs, sports, youth and senior services, and special events within the community of Southfield . SOCIAL CHARACTERISTICS POPULATION The City of Southfield occupies an area of 26.6 square miles in the southeastern portion of Oakland County, immediately north of the City of Detroit. Originally a rural farming community, the City experienced a period of rapid development in the 1960s and 70s after the City was incorporated in 1958. The greatest numerical increase in population was recorded in the decade between 1960 and 1970 when the population grew from 30,000 to 69,000; an increase of almost 120 percent. The population was recorded at 78,296 in the 2000 census, making Southfield the third largest residential community in Oakland County at the time. The 2010 Census has indicated a slight decline in population for Southfield, down to 71,758 persons as a result of the recession. This decline is expected to reverse over the next ten years, regaining population losses. The long term population forecast for Southfield predicts that the population of Southfield will increase moderately over the next 25 years to 80,590 persons (SEMCOG). AGE Southfield aged between 2000 and 2010. Person 65 years or older increased from approximately 15 percent of the population in 2000 to 17 percent of the population in 2010, an increase of 2.2 percent overall, even during a period of population decline. Youth, under 18 years of age, represent 20 percent of the population or 14,698 persons in 2010. The number of persons over age 65,

    See where your school ranks! mackinac.org/CAP2016 THE MICHIGAN CONTEXT AND PERFORMANCE REPORT CARD HIGH SCHOOLS 2016 By Ben DeGrow and Ronald Klingler The Mackinac Center for Public Policy is a nonpartisan research and educational institute dedicated to improving the quality of life for all Michigan residents by promoting sound solutions to state and local policy questions. The Mackinac Center assists policymakers, scholars, businesspeople, the media and the public by providing objective analysis of Michigan issues. The goal of all Center reports, commentaries and educational programs is to equip Michigan residents and other decision makers to better evaluate policy options. The Mackinac Center for Public Policy is broadening the debate on issues that have for many years been dominated by the belief that government intervention should be the standard solution. Center publications and programs, in contrast, offer an integrated and comprehensive approach that considers: All Institutions. The Center examines the important role of voluntary associations, communities, businesses and families, as well as government. All People. Mackinac Center research recognizes the diversity of Michigan residents and treats them as individuals with unique backgrounds, circumstances and goals. All Disciplines. Center research incorporates the best understanding of economics, science, law, psychology, history and morality, moving beyond mechanical cost-benefit analysis. All Times. Center research evaluates long-term consequences, not simply short-term impact. Committed to its independence, the Mackinac Center for Public Policy neither seeks nor accepts any government funding. The Center enjoys the support of foundations, individuals and businesses that share a concern for Michigan’s future and recognize the important role of sound ideas.

  • Oakland County Tier Structure & Targeting Lists
    TIER STRUCTURE AND TARGET LISTS We have formed a public-private partnership aimed at advancing the health and academic achievement of all children by dramatically increasing access to school breakfast. Together, we can meet our kids’ needs and improve school performance by working to close the existing breakfast access gap. If successful, our efforts would have a transformational impact on school performance and the future workforce of Oakland County. United Way has established a goal for 70 percent of all the FRP-eligible students in a building that participates in the National School Lunch Program to also receive a school breakfast. Depending on program success, it is possible to greatly exceed this goal in certain buildings. In determining which buildings to target, we used Michigan Department of Education meal claim data to form a basic set of assumptions. First, we know that in Oakland County, the collective ratio of FRP lunch to FRP breakfast eaters is 49 percent — well below the state of Michigan average of 60 percent. However, many buildings in Oakland County across the socio-economic spectrum already do well at serving breakfast. Therefore, those buildings would be removed from consideration to allow for concentration of resources on those schools where a significant “gap” is present. Second, buildings that do not serve breakfast at all (either because they are private schools, or they do not meet the requirement of the state mandate) as well as residential child caring institutions are also removed from consideration. Lastly, any targeting of school buildings was done with the most accurate data available at that time, and while these figures generally remain static from year to year, there should be flexibility in the selection and recruitment of targets.
