What it’s like

The place. Weidman is a small community in Isabella County, Michigan, with a population that is among the smallest of towns its kind. Residents are somewhat younger than the typical American, and nearly every home is lived in by its owner, far more than across the county. Winters are cold and snowy, summers are warm, and precipitation is steady through the year.

Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by restaurants, hotels and entertainment, shops, and manufacturing. Across Isabella County, the largest workplaces include Central Michigan University, the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe's casino hotels, and Mears Group, which does pipeline and construction work. Many people drive a fair way to work, and a small number work from home.

Things to do. Walker Creek, a river, and Weidman Millpond, a reservoir, are in or beside town. The Coldwater River is a short drive away. A longer drive brings you to Budd Lake and other lakes and rivers, and to state parks such as Wilson State Park and White Pine Trail State Park.
