How Immigration Shaped Hamtramck
Hamtramck is a 2.1-square-mile city entirely surrounded by Detroit. Polish immigrants settled Hamtramck in the early 1900s to work at the Dodge Main plant, which operated from 1910 to 1980. The Polish heritage persists in restaurants and bakeries along Joseph Campau Avenue, though the community has transformed dramatically.
Hamtramck now has one of the most diverse populations in the country for a city its size. Yemeni, Bangladeshi, Bosnian, and African-American residents make up large portions of the population. In 2021, Hamtramck became the first city in the United States to elect an all-Muslim city council. The population is about 22,000.
The GM Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Center, now called Factory ZERO, straddles the Hamtramck-Detroit border and produces the Hummer EV and other electric vehicles. Joseph Campau Avenue remains the main commercial street. Veterans Memorial Park and Colonel Hamtramck Park provide limited green space in the dense cityscape.
