  It's like any city, there are tons to do. When we talk about Detroit, we talk about the Detroit Greater Area, not just the city of Detroit. But all the cities around it. There is an awesome tech scene here too, Detroit downtown is bubbling with a lot of startups, and we interact with the scene in Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor. Lots of tech meetups. If nightlife is your thing, there are tons of places for that from Windsor, Ontario which is just across the river, to Royal Oak, Rochester, Birmingham, Dearborn. If you're a foodie, there are tons of great restaurants out here, my favorite are the hole in the wall spots with great and cheap food. Tons of farmer's markets if buying fresh and preparing a meal is yours. Lots of golf courses, Michigan ranks #6 by golf.com. If water is your thing, there are lot's of waters, boating is big. Michigan has always been the #1 country by boat registrations in the US until California just took over, we are still #2. Big on sports, we have an NFL team, NBA team, NHL, MLB and of course college sports team, we have Univeristy of Michigan and Michigan state with great teams. Proximity to other places is not too bad, 4 hrs drive to Toronto, 4hrs drive to Chicago, 3 hrs to Columbus or Cleveland. Cost of living can be cheap, you can buy a $50,000 4 bedroom house or a million dollar 4 bedroom house. If you are wise and buy in the cheap areas, you can save a lot of money for your future.
