Millenials like Grand Rapids.
Small-town feel with big-city neighbors: Here are 4 cities millennials are flocking to: The perfect blend of big-city appeal and small-town charm.
1. Grand Rapids, Michigan
The second-largest city in Michigan, Grand Rapids is a mid-sized city with a big-city feel. Of the nearly 200,000 people, more than two-thirds are below the age of 45, and the median age is just over 31 years.
Mortgage rates in Michigan are reasonable, and with median home prices in Grand Rapids around $143,000, more than half of residents own their own home. Also, unemployment is below the national average at just 4.4%. Grand Rapids is a rare bastion for the manufacturing industry, though the health, retail, and education industries are also big sources of employment.
There's plenty to do in Grand Rapids as you enjoy the culture and cuisine. You can find a number of interesting museums, several live event venues, and a happening brewery scene. You're also a short drive from Lake Michigan where watersports abound.

I like that GR kept and renovated its old buildings. It’s got a good vibe to it and there’s usually something to do. It’s like a mini Chicago, minus a diverse cultural history and annoying Bears’ fans.

Re: Millenials like Grand Rapids.
meh.. it's a decent city but I wouldn't wanna live there.
of course, I'm old and square.. certainly not a cool, hip millennial.
