"LANSING? You've got to be kidding me!! I was born and raised in that town and the minute I graduated HS I left and never turned back. There are NO jobs, NO money, and NO more auto industry (the only thing keeping the town afloat). MSU is a great school, but there is NOTHING to do there! No nightlife, No daylife, no shopping, NOTHING. As a NATIVE of Lansing, Mi and I have pride and love for my city and state, I would NEVER reccomend a "Young Adult" to move there. Period." – Courtney
