Isn't this an issue with most states though? Big metropolitan areas tend to lean liberal, rural areas tend to lean conservative, and every state has a similar distribution?
I've always contemplated moving out of MI to the west coast, but I've heard it's just the same sort of dynamic. So I just stick to metro Detroit, Flint, Ann Arbor, etc

- Arainach 5y agoThe Midwest is far more proud of it. Yes, it you go to Eastern Washington/Oregon or Northern California, voters are more conservative, but I've done road trips in the last couple years through all that territory and I can sit in a brewery or go to a hotel without having it all thrown in my face. In suburban Michigan the locals are proud of their bigotry in a manner I just don't encounter in blue states. No one in Washington was overtly plotting to kidnap the governor. The Eastern counties hate Inside but they're not as maniacal.
