What it’s like

The place. Fennville is a small city in Allegan County, Michigan, with a young population: residents are younger on average than in most American places, and a four-year degree is held by fewer adults here than is typical. More poverty shows up here than across the county, and household incomes in the county overall are comfortable. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and the typical home value is well above what many older homeowners might expect for a town this size.

Work. Residents work mainly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, and in restaurants, hotels and entertainment, with professional and business services close behind. Among the largest workplaces in Fennville are Fennville Public Schools, Conagra Brands, which cans and pickles fruit and vegetables, and PGI of Saugatuck, which makes ice cream. Almost no one works from home, and the typical commute is a moderate drive.

Things to do. Saugatuck Dunes State Park, a protected area of shoreline dunes, is a short drive away, as is Lake Allegan, a reservoir. The Kalamazoo River, also a short drive away, offers another stretch of water to visit. Winters here are cold and snowy, with summers warm and a fair amount of rain and melted snow across the year.
