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.
What formal region is Michigan a part of?
A formal region is defined by governemtn/administratives boundaries.......such as states countires and cities.
If you travel by car, you must drive around Lake Michigan. Lake Michigan is between the two cities and one must drive the car south, then west and then back up north.
You have to consider all the stoplights\signs, the other vehicles, that fact that you are driving in a straight line, you have to follow the roads. If you consider all that stuff it makes the trip alot longer than necessary. It's even worse if your driving to/from/through a big city

What GPA is needed to get into Western Michigan University?
I don't know the exact GPA needed for acceptance into Central Michigan University. But you definitely need to get decent grades. A good GPA and a decent SAT score are a must. After you accomplish this, start thinking about ways you can separate yourself from the competition. Extracurricular activates are very important. Lastly, make sure you want to go to Central Michigan University. I know a lot of students that thought they wanted to go to their dream school, but when they got in and went to that school, they were really disappointed.

How many dogs can you legally own in Michigan?
The law in Michigan is: You can have no more then 2 dogs per house hold. Michigan feels that, you are risking potential harm for your dog if you have more then 2 dogs. Due to odor, barking and sanitation of the bathroom area of your home. A Holland judge ordered a Holland man to serve 90 days in jail because he had 3 dogs. The man was released after serving 4 days, he agreed to give up one of his dogs.
So, if you live in Michigan, take care of your dogs and the Animal Control will never know how many you have, if they never come to your house.
This law is not restricted to the entire state of Michigan. Many cities allow 3 dogs and you can apply for a kennel license to have more. A kennel license must be approved by the city and most times they will ask your neighbors if they are ok on you having more than 3 dogs. They also will inspect your property and require a fee above and beyond the individual dog license fee.
