Current Resident: It’s such a nice, peaceful place to raise a family. Spring Arbor University offers many camps in the summer to keep kids busy. There are many conveniences in the tiny town, but you’ll have to drive the 5-10 miles to Jackson for major needs. Schools are great!... Read 14 reviews

Current Resident: I've lived in the same neighborhood on Evanston all of my life and it may be a stretch to say this but I think it is probably one of the safest neighborhoods in Blackman township. Nothing really major happens in the neighbor hood we don't have break ins or angry or aggressive neighbors. In my neighborhood I know a lot of the people around us, we talk on accession and I've known them since I've lived in my house.... Read 57 reviews

Current Resident: Michigan Center is a small town located just outside Jackson, MI. Despite its size, it has quite a diverse choice of restaurants to choose from. Everything from Chinese, to a locally owned Rudy's drive in. In July the Carp Carnival comes to town complete with greasy fair food, some rides for the kids, and a Beer Tent for the adults. If you live downtown just like me, you are 3 minutes or less from a gym, restaurants, car wash, schools, specialty stores, and the lake. It may be a small town, but it is an exceptional one....

Current Resident: I love Vandercook Lake! I feel as if it is a very 'looked over' community. It isn't super wealthy, there isn't much to do there, but it is a place that makes you feel at home. Though there isn't much to do right in the center of the community, it is only about a 10 minute drive from downtown Jackson, MI. Jackson is slowly turning into more of a tourist destination and it shows! Vandercook is benefiting from the improvement of Jackson.... Read 2 reviews

Great selection of restaurants although a thai and indian food restaurant is lacking but you can just drive to lansing or ann arbor for those foods.

Current Resident: I have just recently moved to Grass Lake, a little over a year ago to be exact, and I love the town. I have always wanted to live in the "country" and Grass Lake is a perfect mix of country vibes with a small town mix. I grew up in a small town in Ohio, and Grass Lake is so similar to my home town it is amazing.

Current Resident: Concord is a great community. It is a tight knit community where everyone knows everyone and has a very neighborly feel, where people are eager to help you when they can. My only complaint about Concord is the school system. When I graduated, it was a sought after school district, the administration was great and genuinely cared for the students. Recently, it has been about popularity with a high rate of bullying. It's unfortunate that the school system has diminished the way it has. Besides that, Concord is great with a low crime rate and great people.... Read 8 reviews

Current Resident: The system at Grass Lake Community Schools has been fairly good to me for the last 13 years of my life. Yet, the focus tends to lean on the side of athletics.

Current Resident: Overall, a very nice area. Very rural, as are the nearby townships of Waterloo and Stockbridge. There are a few small businesses, lots of farms, good churches (I recommend Jeruel Baptist), and it's generally a nice, quiet place to live. The majority of the residents of the area (the three townships) are descendants (by blood or by marriage) of the original Kentucky families who moved here a long time ago for work at the local farm economy, a big enough business at the time to merit a branch line of the Lima & Detroit railroad. It's very quiet now though. I am a descendent of those original Kentucky families and a good chunk of the people in the region are distant (or not so distant) cousins of mine. There is no police force in the township, or in Waterloo, so we have to rely on the County Sheriff and State Police. The Sheriff's Office is pretty good about keeping a deputy on patrol out here in the boonies, just in case. The people around here are pretty conservative too. Nice library!... Read 4 reviews

Parent: The curriculum is strong, with students working above grade level in many subjects. Teachers set high expectations and then help each child achieve those goals in a warm and nurturing environment. Each day students’ folders are filled with the work that they have completed so that parents can be informed of their child’s progress. Any obstacles are handled at early stages and the child is treated with the utmost respect every step of the way. The emphasis on STEAM is helping to prepare students for a successful future. Every member of the staff knows each kid--not only their names, but their individual personalities. Additional benefits of ACE include smaller class sizes, character development, a uniform that minimizes drama in the mornings, responsive staff, and an exceptional facility. I am confident that my children have a strong educational foundation and love of learning that will serve them well going forward.... Read 7 reviews
