Planning on making Michigan your new home?

You’ve made a great choice! The Wolverine State offers plenty of opportunities for outdoor living, a slower pace of life, and an affordable lifestyle. While the state was hit hard by the economic crisis of 2008, it’s bouncing back -- and that makes it a great time to make Michigan your home.

Michigan winters are long and brutal, it’s true. But if you can acclimate to the cold -- or manage to not have to go out in it! -- the summer and fall will make you forget those snowy months. Plus, you’re never far from a body of water, and you can always pop over into Canada for the day!
