Young Israel of Southfield (YIS) is located centrally in Southfield, MI, just minutes from Detroit. Located in Oakland County, with easy access to most metro area expressways, Southfield offers both a cosmopolitan, culturally-diverse residential population of more than 78,000 residents and a thriving international business community. Residents and businesses alike come to Southfield for its excellent city services and easy access to all of southeastern Michigan.

YIS is located in a Modern Orthodox neighborhood. YIS is within a mile of Farber Hebrew Day School - Yeshivat Akiva, our Modern Orthodox Day School, as well as Yeshiva Darchei Torah. Also in Southfield are Yeshiva Beth Yehuda, P’tach Michigan Chapter Inc, and Meer Early Childhood Center. YIS offers numerous learning and social opportunities for men, women and children of all ages throughout the year, including exceptional weekly shiurim and lectures.

Southfield is also soon to be home to a beautiful brand new state of the art daily Mikvah within walking distance of the shul and YIS community.
