Is Michigan a bad state

Answer 1

Michigan is a POOR STATE. Michigan is Very Racist, too. There is crime and decay in every major city in Michigan, like Detroit, Grand Rapids, Flint, etc. There is no opportunity in Michigan and the only best part of Michigan is the west coast of Michigan (Benton Harbor) on the Indiana/Michigan corridor. Most Chicagoans go to Benton Harbor for their summer vacation beach homes but do not continue the 3 1/2 hour drive to Detroit, MI. There is no mass transit in Detroit and if you don't have a car, you are up the creek. The people act ill-mannered and ignorant and appear to be in a coma.

The city hasn't been revitalized since the 1960's riots and they are Jealous of the Prosperous Mid- Western States like Western Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa and Minnesota. The Progressive City of the Region is Chicago and People from Michigan are Jealous of Chicago and you can tell in their nasty attitudes when they leave Detroit and come to Chicago or the Chicagoans winter home cities of Phoenix, AZ, Las Vegas, NV and Tuscon, AZ. There is violence and racism all throughout the State. If you live in the City of Detroit, there are no grocery stores or decent shopping and you have to go to the suburbs. Detroit and the State of Michigan is 100 years behind America. If you live in the City of Detroit and work in the suburbs, you have to pay more in taxes,however; if you have a job in the City of Detroit and live in the suburbs you don't have to pay more in taxes (this was due to "White Flight" from the 1950's, 1960's).

Michigan is a very Poor State and the taxes are high. If you live in a $25 -$35, 000.00 home, you might end up paying close to $4,000.00 a year in real estate taxes. This is why so many of the people from Michigan leave but when they leave, they still have bad nasty attitudes. I lived in Michigan (Detroit) from 2008 to 2009. It is also a depressing place to live. This is from my experience and just go on "youtube" and see the decay.

Answer 2

As of May 2009, the economy in Michigan is suffering as the auto industry is suffering. The USA automobile industry is centralized in the state of Michigan, primarily in the Detroit area. The unemployment rate and the foreclosure rate has significantly increased due to lay offs and plant closings related to the auto industry.
