Home upkeep in Berkley, four visits a year.

Berkley went up fast after the war, grid streets of small lots packed close enough that neighbors know each other's dogs by name. Four visits a year, the small jobs handled, from $— a month.

Berkley became a village in 1923 and a city in 1932, and the postwar boom of the 1940s built most of what stands there now. Its 2.61 square miles are laid out on a tight grid, with small lots and houses set close together. Every year since 1995, the day before the Woodward Dream Cruise, Berkley CruiseFest runs a classic car parade past those front curbs. Oxford Park and Bacon Park sit inside that grid, and their trees drop onto the same short rooflines every fall. On a compact postwar ranch the front picture window faces the sidewalk all year, and grime on it shows as fast as a neglected lawn.
