It’s impossible to name just one thing that makes the Mitten State magical. It starts with the Great Lakes, followed by great communities, places to adventure, and family, to name a few. And whether you’re from the area or not, your loyalty to Michigan can run as deep as Lake Superior. It seems like everyone finds their way up north.
What about you? Do you plan on retiring here? If so, it’s important to know that the tax rules aren’t the same in every state.
