Review of Grand Rapids, Michigan


Every thing here blows
Star Rating - 7/6/2006
The economy has been dumping for about 6 years with no end in sight. The up side is doctors are in demand due to the large medical bases here and health care for the same reason - if you can afford it. It is down right cold in winter, and summer is way too short. Most jobd do not pay over $10 an hour. It jobs pay very low unless you get into a national company. Heat is expensive, wifi is limited, roads are terrible, businesses just keep leaving, companies expect a bachelors degree with 5 years experience to be worth about $30k - you cant live on that. As I said. Every thing blows here!!
