These are the cheapest, most expensive areas to buy a home in Michigan The average Michigan home sale was nearly $25,000 higher in 2020 compared to 2019 as the pandemic spurred a buzzing real estate market. Almost every corner of Michigan followed the trend, from Metro Detroit to the Upper Peninsula. But many of the hottest markets were in northern Michigan. “That shows where people want to be,” said E’toile O’Rear-Libbett, president of Michigan Realtors. “They want land, they want wide-open spaces. And many of them want to be somewhere near water.” If you want to see where the lowest and highest prices are for housing, here's the data: READ MORE MICHIGAN'S BESTHow to have a Michigan's Best Day in Novi and Northville Located on the west side of the metro Detroit area, two interesting -- and completely different -- cities are waiting to be explored. We spent a Michigan’s Best Day in downtown Northville and Novi, and found all sorts of fun things to do, and delicious things to eat and drink. Our best day starts at a local cafe for breakfast, includes shopping at both local and national retailers, some incredible fried chicken and freshly-made ice cream, zooming around the track in a go-kart, a little history and art, and a stop at a brewery.

Gretchen Whitmer has laid a clear path for Michigan to eliminate its COVID-19 health order and associated restrictions: Get 70% of the population 16 or older to have at least one vaccine shot. But simultaneously, the state is working through a process to make permanent its workplace COVID-19 rules, enforced through the Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Administration. The current temporary MIOSHA workplace rules expire Oct. 14 and cannot be extended again, per state law. Republicans and business leaders are unhappy with the prospect of permanent rules.
