I-696 runs the northern edge of the city, and everything in Southfield seems to borrow that pace — quick, scheduled, already on to the next thing. EXPRESS LAWN AND SNOW SERVICES is built for it: mowing, edging, trimming and cleanups on a route that shows up when it says it will, and plowing, shoveling and salting that starts while the snow is still coming down. Speed only counts if the work holds up afterward, so the edges get cut properly and the salt goes where the water actually sits. There's a particular pride in pulling off a street and seeing every yard on it finished.
