About the Area

Kalamazoo, MI Community Resources

Welcome to the land of rolling hills, sparkling clear lakes, stellar recreation, and stunning entertainment. Centrally located between Detroit and Chicago, the city of Kalamazoo lies on the lower reaches of the Kalamazoo River at its confluence with Portage Creek, 35 miles east of Lake Michigan. From its small-town feel, big-city life, and equidistant 150 miles from both Detroit and Chicago, nuance is the best word to define Brewery City

Kalamazoo is one of those cities that's neither too slow nor too fast. The city puts you in the driver's seat; If you want history, take a walk around the old 1900s architecture of Vine Street. Similarly, If you want the hustle and feel of the city, drive downtown and savor its outdoor mall vibe, and if you want peace of mind, get lost in the nearest nature trail. Kalamazoo has a broad range of museums, nature trails, theaters, parks, and 83 lakes - which gives its residents an endless supply of fishing and kayaking places

Kalamazoo not only has coffee shops galore, but it also has plenty of breweries and a vibrant nightlife. The craft beer scene is growing across the country and young professionals were the first to jump on the trend. The Bell’s Brewery and six downtown breweries call Kalamazoo home, and there are seven other breweries in Kalamazoo County

Kalamazoo is an educational hub, and is home to Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo College, and Kalamazoo Valley Community College. The city's public schools in Kalamazoo are ranked some of the best in the country and the state. Kalamazoo is proud of its offering called The Kalamazoo Promise. The Kalamazoo Promise was announced by Dr. Janice Brown in 2005, and declared that students who graduate from Kalamazoo Public Schools and meet basic requirements will receive up to 100% off tuition and mandatory fees paid for at any in-state public community college or university.

The high quality of education, a culture of innovation, a heritage of biotechnology, and supportive legislation come together to give Kalamazoo a healthy job market. Overall, Kalamazoo is considered a great place to live, work, and play!

Nearby: Grand Rapids, MI

With a population of almost 200,000, Grand Rapids is a city where you can enjoy fast-paced excitement and laid-back leisure. From a walkable downtown bustling with dining, nightlife, and culture... to a grand outdoors featuring outdoor ice skating, cross-country skiing, downhill skiing and more... it's the best of both world

Known for its unique combination of urban sophistication and small-town warmth, Grand Rapids is located in Western Michigan on the banks of the legendary Grand River. Incorporated in 1838, today, the community is rated among the top cities in the U.S., combining family-friendliness with safety, cleanliness, and an uncommon commitment to enterprise. Businesses tend to thrive here because of the region's famous work ethic and a historical commitment to the value of innovation.

Designed as a "walking" city, the downtown features a modern arena, a major new convention center, plenty of nightlife, and several five-star hotels and restaurants. Located just minutes away from the splendor of Lake Michigan beaches and dozens of quaint lakeshore towns and villages, Grand Rapids has developed a regional reputation for major artistic and cultural events, a full calendar of stage plays and concerts, four outstanding museums, and a world-class botanical garden and sculpture park.

Best of all, this vibrant and growing city infuses these amenities with Midwestern civility and charm. The relaxed atmosphere of the diverse neighborhoods, the sheer variety of boutique shopping areas, and the commercial energy found within the bustling downtown area are testaments to the enduring success of the public/private partnership that continues to make quality of life the very highest priority.
