Rochester is an urban center situated on the northside of the Detroit Metropolitan area. The Village of Rochester was formed in 1869, although there are buildings that predate that. Almost a century later it was awarded city status. Industries such as refineries and factories flourished in Rochester because of the abundant water supply from Paint Creek and the Clinton River. The now abandoned railway and Paint Creek have been transformed into a green corridor and play an integral part in the lives of the Rochester community. The new open air Village of Rochester Hills shopping complex is another gathering point.
