Flint Overview

Flint, Michigan offers affordable city living in a great location. It’s the largest city in its county, and apartments in Flint, MI, are available year-round. The city has a bit of a “tough” reputation, but businesses and residents are working hard to reverse negative trends. The city is now in a rebuilding stage, making it a great time to move in.

What is the history of Flint?

Flint got its start as a trade outpost, founded by a fur trader named Jacob Smith. Throughout the early-1900s, the small city was well-known for its role in the automotive industry. Many residents worked in the General Motors factory. The decline of this industry was the subject of Michael Moor’s “Roger and Me.” More recently, companies like the American Cast Iron Pipe Company have moved in to offer jobs.

How is the weather in Flint?

The city has moderate summers, with temperatures averaging in the upper-70s and lower-80s. Winters are cold, with temperatures in the 30s and 40s. Snow typically falls from November to April, though it’s intermittent.

How do I get around town?

Flint has a robust public bus system that can take you around the city. The Flint MTA also offers a special “Ride to Groceries” service that takes city residents directly to large grocery stores that offer healthier foods at more affordable prices, including Kroger and Walmart. This service operates on a regular bus line and as a call-in service where you can request a ride.

What is the Flint commute like?

" Those who do have a car will have little problem getting around. Routes 475 and 69 are major highways that lead into and out of the city. University Avenue and Martin Luther King Avenue are two of the larger roads that connect you to many of the areas in the city."

What are the local media outlets?

Residents can usually access all major TV stations, though the local ABC affiliate is the only one that actually still operates out of Flint. When not searching the internet for news, most locals look to The Flint Journal, which has been in operation since 1876. It’s only available three days a week.

Why live in Flint, MI?

" There’s no doubt that Flint has had some troubles in the past. However, things are definitely turning around. If you work in downtown Flint or go to school at the University of Michigan or Kettering University, living in the city is a natural choice. The downtown area in particular is seeing a lot of residential growth. Most people like the easy commute to work and the ability to bike or walk wherever you need to go. Not needing a car can save a lot of money."

What Flint landmarks should I see?

Aside from the two universities, many Flint residents enjoy hanging out outdoors at Bluebell Beach or Stepping Stone Falls. The historic Saginaw Street with its famous brick roads is the site of many popular events throughout the year. The Crossroads Village and Huckleberry Railroad is a fun site for the kids.

What is there to do around Flint?

During the winters, families often head to the Sloan Museum for the history and science exhibits or the Flint Children’s Museum, which has plenty of activities for the little ones. If you’re more interested in the arts, you’ll probably enjoy going to The Whiting, which hosts music, theater, and dance shows.

Any annual festivals or Flint events to know?

Look for a variety of events throughout the year. Some of the more popular events include the annual Nutcracker performance, quilting festivals, and a number of craft fairs.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Live in Flint but want to get away from it all? There are plenty of bed and breakfasts throughout the state, especially along Lake Michigan. These make for nice romantic getaways. You could also take the kids camping in one of the national parks. Anyone looking for something a bit more exciting might enjoy a longer drive or a quick plane ride into Toronto.

Where is the best place to move in Flint?

Since Flint is a smaller city, just about anywhere you live could be convenient. Many people choose to live close to their school or place of employment. If you don’t have a car, you’ll want a Flint apartment that’s close to the bus lines. The downtown area is an up-and-coming area, and many people are choosing to live in the new apartments being built there. The Heatherwood area is also a good choice, with upscale apartments that may cost a bit more. Take a drive around the area and you’re likely to find a neighborhood that’s right for you.
