==History==
The area around Romeo was first settled in 1821, and in 1822 the first building was constructed in what was then known as "Hoxie's Settlement."〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Village of Romeo )〕 The first piece of the present-day village, extending two blocks in each direction from the corner of St. Claire and Main Streets, was platted by Col. John B. Hollister in 1830.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Romeo Downtown Development Authority )〕 By 1837 a number of simple log farmhouses dotted the area, and the settlement boasted over 200 people, 34 houses,〔 three dry goods stores, a wagon shop, tannery, shoe shops, a foundry, a cooper shop, carpenter shop and a hoopskirt factory.〔 Hoxie's Settlement was incorporated as the village of Romeo in 1838.〔 The University of Michigan established a branch campus, the Romeo Academy, in the area in the 1840, attracting more prosperous academics and professionals to the area.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Romeo Historic District )〕 A railroad was laid through the village in 1869, bringing increased trade. Planned growth has allowed the Romeo community to maintain a high degree of historic integrity.〔
