River Rouge, MI, is a Downriver suburb of Detroit that has transitioned from an agricultural region to a significant industrial site due to its strategic location between the iron ore of the Upper Peninsula and Eastern United States coal mines. The legalization of recreational marijuana in 2015 brought seven major Detroit dispensaries to the area, boosting local business and opportunities. River Rouge features a mix of architectural styles, including larger bungalows, brick ranches, and Craftsman homes, with most properties built between the 1920s and 1950s. Residents enjoy local attractions such as Mr. K’s Saloon, Smokin’ Steve’s BBQ, and the River Rouge Historical Museum.
