Hi Michiganers! Michiganites? My husband was offered an opportunity to work with Stellantis (marketing role) in Auburn Hills that would elevate his career and come with a relocation package. We have been itching to get out of Texas for...obvious reasons... and were initially excited, but now with all the nonsense going on in the current administration, do you think it would be a bad move? Thank you for any insight! Also sending love from an empathetic Texan ❤️ Anxious for you all as I read about potential impact.

I need all the info I can get on moving to MI from IN. In light of recent events we can no longer live in IN, Mike Braun and Trump make me sick and it’s just not an option. Before we jump ship, we are trying to do our research on the best places to move, best schools, cost of living, and tips/tricks/advice for moving to MI.
Big Questions:
1. is MI *that* much different than IN when it comes to politics/policies/etc? Is it worth it?
2. Best/safest cities to move with a large family (with little kids)
3. Best school districts/systems including daycare recommendations.
4. I work in healthcare (dental) and my husband does HVAC work but also has a degree in marketing. How hard will it be to find new jobs? Is the pay lower in MI?
Thanks to all for any advice given 🥸

I have a family thing taking me to Glen Arbor in Michigan in June... I know this part of Michigan is supposed to be beautiful -- never been -- and I'm kind of already bummed I won't have time to go to Mackinaw Island due to family commitments but I do think I'll have a leisurely day drive to take along the western coast between Saugatuck and Glen Arbor on the way up and wondering if ya'll have any favorite places to recommend between those locations?Also, Saugatuck is really close to Holland and wondering if it's worth a short side trip before we leave there?
