Oh yeah. Personally, I think it's a top 5 state. But like you, I've experienced all the state has to offer to realize how cool it is. Most just go to or live in the Detroit area and write off the entire state.wap wrote: ↑Fri Mar 05, 2021 11:42 amThat's exactly my point, and why I disagree with the list. I've been through the UP and upper LP and it's 5/7. I was making a personal observation.Detroit wrote: ↑Fri Mar 05, 2021 9:17 am
I don't. The state is a very diverse state. If you only knew the Detroit area (which that's all most know), it could easily be the #1 most hated. There's very little redeeming qualities there.
If more people knew the West, North, and UP, it would be high up on the opposite list IMO.
Grand Rapids is growing, and hopefully more people experience that city and area of the state to realize it's 5/7. Or take a trip north... along the NW...Cadillac to Traverse City, Charlevoix, Petoskey, Harbor springs, to the bridge, it's an incredible region like nothing I've seen anywhere else.
