Ferndale sits on the Woodward Corridor directly bordering Detroit to the north, with one of the densest, most walkable downtowns of any inner-ring Detroit suburb — a mix of independent shops, restaurants, and nightlife packed along Nine Mile Road. That density changes how surveillance work gets done here compared to a quieter residential suburb: more foot traffic and storefronts to blend into, but also more people around to notice a parked vehicle or a lingering presence. If you searched for private security in Ferndale, our surveillance and security team covers that ground too — see our full surveillance and security services page for what we offer. Our equipment — HD digital video, aerial and underwater drones, covert GPS vehicle tracking, and infrared/night vision gear — lets us work discreetly whether the case calls for a busy downtown corridor or a quiet side street.

Ferndale is one of the most densely populated cities in Metro Detroit, packed into under 4 square miles right against the Detroit border. Cases here often move between Ferndale and neighboring Detroit, Royal Oak, or Hazel Park within the same day — we know the corridor and the traffic patterns well enough to work efficiently across those lines.

Ferndale is a city in Oakland County along the Woodward Corridor, directly bordering Detroit to the north. It’s known across Metro Detroit for its walkable downtown, independent business scene, and status as a hub of the region’s LGBTQ+ community — all of which make it one of the busier, more active suburbs we serve.
