Clinton Township, Michigan

Population: 95,648

Located in Macomb County

Tucked away in the middle of Macomb County, next to Mt. Clemens, and near Shelby is the vibrant community of Clinton Township.

With several automotive plants in the area, as well as farmland, this area is a perfect blend of rural and urban. Over the last ten years, Clinton Township has enjoyed a growth spurt from a small farming community, home of the now defunct "Detroit Creamery" to a bustling area, as new residents move from the more crowded urban areas of Detroit. Located 10 minutes from major highways that lead to Detroit and other cities where most industry takes place, Clinton Township is an attractive alternative to those people who want a slice of country living but need to be close to their work place.

Clinton Township also offers a lot of house for your money, and you can find a comfortable three bedroom home for right around $150,000. Of course, if you want to spend more, there are homes that can sell as high as $1,000,000, but you certainly can find a great home at a great price!

Dirt roads intermingle with larger cement roads, but Clinton Township has retained a sense of country, and it is not unusual to see horses cantering around a field, and behind many of the newer subdivisions are pockets of rural areas, with old farmhouses. Some of them have retained the big, red barns.

Clinton Township offers a variety of settings and opportunities for fun and enjoyment. There are ballparks, cross-country skiing, canoe rental, swimming and picnicking. Private recreation found nearby include stock car racing, three golf courses, a bowling center, Volley ball courts, trap shooting grounds and adventure parks with water slides, miniature golf, batting cages, go-carts and video games.

This is a great place to live, and experience the best of both worlds, rural and urban. For variety, both in lifestyle and in seasons, Clinton Township has it all. For cost of living and excellence in all things, Clinton Township cannot be beat.
