City of Sterling Heights, MI
Sterling Heights is a city in Macomb County of the U.S. state of Michigan, and one of Detroit's core suburbs. As of the 2020 Census, the city had a total population of 134,346. It is the second largest suburb in Metro Detroit, and the fourth largest city in Michigan.
From 1836 until 1838, it was known as Jefferson Township.[6] It was then renamed Sterling Township. Until the 1950s, it was an agricultural area largely devoted to growing rhubarb and other crops sold in Detroit. Sterling Heights was incorporated as a city in 1968. There was already a small village named Sterling in Arenac County, so the word "Heights" was added to the township name to satisfy a state law that prevents incorporated municipalities from having the same name.
