Click On Detroit - The Polish flocked to Hamtramck in the 1900s and evidence of the city's Polish roots remain.
However, over the last few decades a new wave of immigrants, primarily from the Middle East, South Asia and Southeastern Europe, has dramatically changed the face and culture of this community.
Now, the Hamtramck City Council is going to reflect that diversity.
Voters gave Abu Musa and Anam Miah another term in office. Saad Almasmari was elected for the first time. Now four of the six City Council members will be of Muslim faith.
It's said to be the first majority Muslim City Council not only in Hamtramck but in the entire country.
