Michigan travel safety advice


Michigan travel safety advice

The majority of Michigan is very safe, though of course there are hazards. Notable exceptions are Flint, Saginaw and Detroit, among others. Most places are completely safe during daylight hours and important main entertainment and cultural centers are heavily policed after dark. Still, ask locally about which areas are safe as bad areas can be just across the street from good areas. Use common sense traveling in and through urban areas especially after dark. Outside of urban areas Michigan is the typical friendly-as-can-be Midwest state. If you choose to explore Michigan by car, be aware of local road conditions, especially during winter. Due to the Great lakes, western Michigan and the Upper Peninsula can get a tremendous amount of snow in a short period. This can make travel by road very dangerous. Always carry a cell phone while driving in snowy conditions so that you might call for help if necessary. Be especially vigilant at all times.
