Get out, and don't look back.
The beaches and scenery around Muskegon are beautiful (even during the 9 months a year they're covered in snow), so it's a shame the city has become what it is. Jobs are nonexistent now, and the economy somehow keeps finding ways to get worse. As you'd expect from all of this, the only people still living in Muskegon are the ones who can't get out, so I can only imagine the crime and homeless rates there must be now. I grew up in Muskegon, and it wasn't a bad place to be a kid, but as an adult professional you're better off just about anywhere else. I left Muskegon in 2003 and never looked back; I'd recommend anyone who can get out do the same.
