This article is about the city in Oakland County. For the township in Newaygo County, see [Troy Township, Michigan](/source/Troy_Township,_Michigan).

**Troy** is a city in [Oakland County, Michigan](/source/Oakland_County,_Michigan), United States. A northern [suburb of Detroit](/source/Metro_Detroit), Troy is located about 15 miles (24 km) north of [downtown Detroit](/source/Downtown_Detroit). As of the 2020 census, the city had a population of 87,294,[3] making Troy the largest community in Oakland County and [13th-most populous municipality in the state](/source/List_of_municipalities_in_Michigan).

Troy was organized as a township in 1827, and sections of the township were later incorporated into the cities of [Birmingham](/source/Birmingham,_Michigan), [Clawson](/source/Clawson,_Michigan), and [Royal Oak](/source/Royal_Oak,_Michigan). The remainder of the township was incorporated as the city of Troy in 1955.

## History

The earliest recorded purchases of land in what was known as Troy Township occurred in 1819. A couple of years later, a settlement known as Troy Corners was established due to [Johnson Niles](/source/Johnson_Niles) buying 160 acres in the region. The area is currently the north-central area of Troy. In 1827, Troy Township was established. In 1955, Troy was officially incorporated primarily as a strategy for preventing border cities from taking more land. This also helped to establish more robust city services for Troy residents, whose numbers increased rapidly during this time due to Detroiters fleeing the city for the surrounding suburbs.

It was named after [Troy, New York](/source/Troy,_New_York) and the ancient city of [Troy](/source/Troy) as many of the early settlers, as in much of Michigan, originated from New York.[4]
