The population of Cherry Hill Estates has fluctuated, with a notable increase from 743 in 2020 to 1,042 in 2022. This population growth, combined with increasing racial homogeneity, suggests that the neighborhood may be attracting a specific demographic.
The trend towards increasing racial homogeneity in Cherry Hill Estates contrasts with broader national trends, which generally show increasing diversity in many suburban areas. The high median income and predominantly white population in this neighborhood align more closely with patterns seen in some exclusive suburban enclaves.
The significant population increase from 2020 to 2022 may be part of a broader trend of suburban growth following the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the racial homogeneity of this growth in Cherry Hill Estates differs from national patterns, where suburban growth often correlates with increased diversity.
Cherry Hill Estates presents a case of a high-income, racially homogeneous suburban neighborhood that has become even more so over the past decade, diverging from broader trends of increasing suburban diversity. This evolution raises questions about local housing policies, community dynamics, and the factors driving demographic changes in this particular area of Dearborn.
