Renting Retail Space in Detroit

Retail in Detroit is experiencing a nuanced rebound. TenantBase data shows that 48% of retail leases are for three years or less, reflecting short-term commitments, seasonal experimentation, or newer concepts trying to establish their footprint. Meanwhile, 16% of storefront leases extend beyond 5 years, signaling that select tenants—particularly in revitalized districts like Midtown or Jefferson-Chalmers—are confident enough to commit longer term.

Retail interest is particularly strong in Dearborn, Ferndale, and Livonia, where population density and neighborhood walkability support both service-oriented storefronts and destination dining. This distribution showcases Detroit’s evolving consumer base and growing mix of independent businesses alongside national retailers.
