Golf in West Bloomfield Township

West Bloomfield Township is the governmental entity that encompasses the West Bloomfield community in Oakland County, a charter township whose affluent residential character, Jewish community heritage, and concentration of private clubs—developed in part as alternatives when Bloomfield Hills Country Club excluded Jewish members in the postwar era—give it a distinctive identity. The township's multiple lakes, upscale residential neighborhoods, and the cultural infrastructure built by the community's Jewish population give West Bloomfield Township a character that is both suburban and culturally specific within Oakland County.
