What it’s like
The place. Eagle is a very small village in Clinton County, home to far fewer people than most towns. Nearly everyone who lives here owns their home, a much higher share than across the county. A typical home is valued at about what you would expect for rural mid-Michigan. Winters are cold and snowy, with January the coldest month, and summers are warm, with July the warmest. Rain and melted snow add up to a fair amount over the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in manufacturing, government, and banks, insurance and property. Across Clinton County, large workplaces include WestRock CP, a printing and packaging operation, Invio Automation, which makes jigs and fixtures for machine tools, and DeWitt Public Schools. The typical commute is a moderate one, so most people travel some distance to work. Jobs across the county grew slightly last year, and unemployment there is close to where it stood a year ago.
Things to do. The Looking Glass River is a short drive away and suits a quiet day by the water. Farther afield, the Potter Park Zoo is a longer drive away, and so is the North Country Trail, a long-distance hiking route. The Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum, also a longer drive away, is one of the better-known cultural stops in the area.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Eagle’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Clinton County and the Lansing-East Lansing, MI metro.
