Review of Flint, Michigan


My Hometown
Star Rating - 2/8/2018
Denzel Washington says if you don't listen to the news, you are uninformed, if you listen to the news you are misinformed. There is a lot of bad press about Flint, and like Mark Twain said, there are 3 types of lies: lies, damn lies and statistics. That being said, I have lived in the area for 66 years minus my two year draft stint. Flint is a gateway to the wonderful great lake state! The downtown has seen quite a revitalization going on, we are spoiled in this area, if we have to wait through two traffic lights we get angry ! Easy to get around with our highway system, and quick to get out of town to destinations around the state. Both alpine and nordic skiing is in abundance here, I visit Mt Holly Ski resort in Holly weekly in the winter months. Oh by the way, this website says we get 30 some inches of snow a year, it is actually 48 on average. As of Feb 8th 2018, we already have over 52 ". THat is why it is called the water winter wonderland in Michigan !
