Romulus, Transportation hub in Wayne County, United States.
Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport occupies a substantial portion of Romulus, connecting the region to international destinations through multiple terminals and runways.
The settlement began in 1826 when Samuel Polyne, a French-Canadian pioneer, established residence in section 2 of what would become Romulus township.
The Samuel Kingsley Home and White Church at Pullens Corners served as Underground Railroad stations, assisting enslaved people seeking freedom in the northern states.
The city maintains multiple parks, including Mary Ann Banks Park and Elmer Johnson Park, which provide sports fields, playgrounds, and gathering spaces.
Northwest Airlines Flight 255 crashed upon takeoff from Detroit Metro Airport in 1987, with only one survivor among 155 passengers and crew.
