Our history
YWCO was originally formed in the 1970s as Neighbors United. Detroit officially recognizes the area which borders Kelly Road, Whittier, I-94, and Morang as Yorkshire Woods. The area was originally woodlands and parks. The first residential home in the community was built in the early 1920s, still exists, and is occupied by the original family.
