Otsego is a very small town. You definitely get the small town feeling while you are there. There aren't many shops or bars downtown Otsego, but all the shops that are there, are all owned by local people who have lived in the area their whole lives. Living in Otsego is very affordable as well, and it is located perfectly between Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo so you are never far from a big city if you want more of an upbeat experience.
Small town, friendly place to live. Great safe place to raise a family, small school system but the educators are excellent. Plenty of small community events, and just down the road from several common shopping areas. Not much recreational activity, but an easy 20 minute drive from someplace that does.
Otsego is tight knit community where everyone knows almost everyone. Everyone is always willing to help one another out. There are downtown businesses that are always so friendly.
