Niche User: Living in Midland has been amazing. I went to elementary through high school in Midland and the school system there is unbeatable, the level of learning is very high and it prepared me for college. Also living in Midland you have so much to do, our biggest tourist attraction is the fridge which is on the Tittabawase river. The bridge connects the skate park and playground with downtown midland which is full of local businesses including my brothers clothing shop. If I had to do it over again I would go back to Midland every time. Its a great city to raise a family.... Read 3 reviews

Suburb of Detroit, MI
Current Resident: Berkley, MI is a growing city in the Metro Detroit area of which I am proud to live in! Downtown Berkley is becoming a hot spot for those looking to support small businesses, with restaurants, storefronts, and much more! The location is perfect to settle down and start a family or even begin a career, as it surrounds many opportunities. Though I would like to see a grocery store pop up in this city, I believe that Berkley is a bang for your buck!... Read 46 reviews

Suburb of Grand Rapids, MI
Current Resident: East Grand Rapids is quiet compared to downtown Grand Rapids. I currently attend a university near the East side and love to go into the heart of East Grand Rapids for walks. Reeds Lake Trial is a popular trial and would be highly recommended. East Grand Rapids is close to main chain stores and mom and pop shops, creating diversity. There is also a diverse population as well, giving people the opportunity to experience culture. I would consider it to be a wealthy suburb of Grand Rapids with a country feel. It is not congested in any way. It is also safe compared to many big cities. Extremely nice area to live in.... Read 35 reviews

Current Resident: It’s a very safe community with great education and a great location. Lots of diverse restaurants, and gorgeous houses. Grosse Pointe has many different groups of people and is very welcoming to anyone. It’s very diverse in many ways. There are many people of many different political beliefs, races, religions, and social classes. I always feel safe walking the streets at night and feel that any stranger I meet will be kind, helpful, and welcoming. There is such a small town feel, having no fast food or strip malls, but both of those things are close by. I have loved growing up here and most definitely want to come back to raise by children here.... Read 44 reviews

Current Resident: Hudsonville is a growing community outside of Grand Rapids Michigan that never ceases to amaze. Starting off as just a little old salad bowl city Hudsonville is growing into a thriving, fun place to live. We have excellent education for students, and its incredibly safe. Education and safety would definitely be at the top of our priority list. We have new and exciting resturants along with old family favorites, but you cant forget the new and pretty tasty shops we have going in right in the heart of Hudsonville. We have plenty of Jobs for everyone of all shapes of life. As we are growing it is becoming a little competitive to find just the perfect house because of Hudsonville's excellent school system. Dont miss the opportunity to start and grow a family in such an amazing family friendly town. But if that is not your way of life thats okay! We have many different excellent sport bars and resturants just for the fun night owl. Im glad to have been born and raised in Hudsonville!... Read 47 reviews

Current Resident: Haslett has been the perfect town to live in. It is close to major stores, MSU, and many exciting things but Haslett is really good at keeping all of the secluded from homes. When Im at my house I feel like I am in awhile different world versus when I am out shopping and having a good time. There are many big name restaurants around but there is also a goos amount of small family restaurants that are just as good (if not better) than the big restaurant chains. I think my favorite part about Haslett though is Lake Lansing Parks. Lake Lansing South has the big beautiful lake, an amazing playground for kids and it has so much green grass that you can use for picnics, laying in, or playing games like football. Lake Lansing north has another amazing playground, some softball/baseball fields, and stunning walking trails. I would 100% recommend Haslett to anyone, young families, college students, working families and even senior citizens. This town has showed me what I want for my home life.... Read 48 reviews
