🗺️ Plan your Michigan trip with our 4 travel guides (E-Book): road trips, old diners, lighthouses & places to stay 👉 https://michigan-guide-box.netlify.app/ In 2011, one Michigan city pulled more than a thousand streetlights off its poles because it couldn't pay the electric bill. It isn't even number one on this list. We ranked 10 of the most disliked towns in Michigan using the same four measures for every one: people lost since the town's peak, poverty, violent crime compared with the state average, and the one event that defined its reputation. These aren't insults. They're what happened: poisoned water, closed plants, emergency managers and whole neighborhoods left in the dark. And for every town, we also show what's still keeping people there. The countdown: 10. Detroit 9. Jackson 8. Pontiac 7. Inkster 6. River Rouge 5. Muskegon Heights 4. Saginaw 3. Benton Harbor 2. Flint 1. Highland Park Did you grow up in one of these towns? Tell us in the comments what outsiders get wrong about it.
