What it’s like

The place. Mt Morris is a small city in Genesee County with a younger population than many places, and incomes that run below the county's. More homes here are lived in by their owners than rented, and the typical home costs less than in much of the country. Few adults hold a four-year degree, and very few work from home.

Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by manufacturing, shops and professional and business services. Across Genesee County, some of the largest workplaces are Hurley Medical Center, McLaren Flint and Genesee ISD. Unemployment across the county has eased a little from a year ago, and the number of jobs has edged up.

Things to do. A short drive away, the Flint Institute of Arts is an art museum, and Crossroads Village is a museum of another kind. Longway Park is a park close by for time outdoors. Winters are cold and the summers warm, with a fair amount of rain and melted snow through the year, so outdoor outings suit the warmer months best.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Mt Morris’ 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 Genesee County and the Flint, MI metro.
