      Vicksburg is a small village in Michigan. It is small so odds are you know everyone and most of the time people are all up in your personal life, from public schools, and libraries Vicksburg has it all. Hometown football games, community tailgates, and parades are all ways Vicksburg shows their pride!

      Vicksburg is a small town. It's great for families and farmers. I would estimate that thirty percent of Vicksburg is farm land. Corn detailing is a common summer practice. I can remember going to a large subdivision during Halloween because the residents gave out large candy bars! There are four restaurants and two bars in the village. The night life is practically nonexistent but thankfully Kalamazoo is a short drive away to spend your weekend nights with friends, a cold drink, and a dance floor.
      I’ve lived in Vicksburg for the last 12 years. It is a growing community, with new business opportunities, family friendly activities, multiple restaurants and community events.
