I Drove Through Michigan's Rural Countryside. This Is What I Saw.

Rural Michigan has some crazy backwood spots! Unlike most midwestern states, the rural areas of Michigan are really pretty.
Some of the best parts of Michigan are the rural parts. On this drive, we went through Western Michigan, specifically in Ottawa County. We drove past blueberry fields, corn fields, apple orchards, pretty barns and a couple of small towns.
We ended up at the Grand River.
About 18% of Michigan's population lives in rural areas like this, some of which are more crowded than others.

What part of Michigan is this? I’m from southern California but I used to travel to Michigan every summer to visit my Dad’s side. I’ve always felt a bucolic romanticism about the people and landscapes there. I remember driving my Cousin’s Ford Ranger down long dirt roads, past rolling cornfields and historic barns, through woods and along humble creeks. Single screen movie theaters, fireflies and bugs buzzing around the lights, no cell phones, and humid nights. It was in Michigan where I first discovered the value of freedom.

Michigan tends to get a bad rap in the press. 90 % of our state is rural or remote & heavily wooded. We have areas that are even much more senic than this. Check U-Tube for additional videos of our beautiful state. Come up for a visit( to escape your heat). We are a large state, friendly people, gorgeous scenery, lots of water, so much to see & do.

Route 136 on the North end of Westport, CT to Easton, CT and then Route 59 to Newtown, CT are nice too. Used to cycle on those roads when I lived in CT years ago.

Saw your comments about large mowed areas & landscaping around homes in Michigan. For the most part Michigan folks do love their land. Yes, we mow a lot, plant lots of flowers & shrub,flowering bushes. Michigan folks are, for the most part, house proud. Sure, there are unkempt homes. For the most part,Michigan folks are hard working, friendly people.

Nice! The cities in Michigan are...different, but the rural areas are as beautiful as I remember. Friendly people too. Good simple food at local restaurants. Just eat early!

Just discovered this video, and as a Michigander, born and raised, this makes so feel so proud and happy others can enjoy see the beauty in our state.
