What it’s like
The place. Millington is a small village in Tuscola County, Michigan, with a population younger than many small towns in the state. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers are warm, with July the warmest. Rain and melted snow fall steadily across the year.
Work. Residents are employed mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by manufacturing, shops and the building trades. Among the largest workplaces in Millington are Millington Community Schools, ADS US, which does commercial screen printing, and Stemco, which makes steering assemblies and parts for trucks and buses. Few people work from home, and the typical commute is a long one, so many residents travel some distance to their jobs.
Things to do. The Flint River and Murphy Lake are both a short drive away for time on the water. Farther afield, the Flint Institute of Arts is a museum, and Crossroads Village is another museum, each a longer drive from town.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Millington’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. 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 Tuscola County.
