Not An Asthmatic's Best Friend - 2/23/2014
Michigan is a beautiful state with great parks and fantastic lakes. Surrounded on three sides by water and with consistent precipitation year-round, there is potential for high levels of mold especially in summer. Look at The Weather Channel's mold spore count during August for Michigan.
As a result I have developed asthma living here in Michigan. I live on a watershed which results in mold on the house, drive and fencing. Powerwashing is a must. But I also breath the spores.

Great environment - 10/21/2010
This fall has been beautiful with lots of sun, Fall in SE Michigan is beautiful in general, it is one of the things I love the most about living here. Winter isn't so bad, and South Lyon is a fast commute to Ann Arbor. Recently South Lyon has hosted many more local events (farmer's market, downtown events) that have really brought excitement to the city. Plus the people are very friendly. Restaurant selection has improved dramatically over the last few years and the cost of living is pretty low.

Our biggest complaint is too much cold with too few sunny days from fall through spring. Tornados do come through here, but tend to strike harder to our south, near the MI/OH border. If it is not summer, it is usuall what we call the "mud and sticks" season. If you are prone to depression, don't move here. Not a bad place, but if sunshine is important to you, keep
