To the OP welcome to the forum and Detroit There are many different options on suburbs with different flavers. The first thing that I would consider is what the commute times would be from job/jobs [[ something this forum would be able to be great help with) and factor housing cost with school districts. As has already been noted above the school districts performance around here is not equal, some are exellant and some not so much. I'm sure I speak for most of the forum that we would be happy to help with any advice we have, just ask away.
