Living in Lenawee
Perfect for Life. Lenawee County, Michigan.
At Home in Lenawee
Lenawee County, Michigan’s reasonable cost of living, big-city amenities, and proximity to nearby cities allows our residents to enjoy the simplicity, safety, and charm of a smaller community while living just a short drive to metropolitan museums, professional sports, and concert and event venues.
Our abundance of lakes, parks, and golf courses make Lenawee County a playground for boating, fishing, hiking, hunting, and biking. Nearby is the Michigan International Speedway which holds nationally televised NASCAR races and holds popular events including Faster Horses Music Festival, the Tough Mudder obstacle course race, and charitable events.
Healthcare
We have excellent local healthcare, with easy access to more specialized hospitals in Toledo, Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, and Jackson. Recently, Promedica opened the Charles and Virginia Hickman Hospital, a modern 205,000 square foot facility with acute care, emergency services, and labs. The new campus also promotes healthy living through more than 2 miles of walking trails, an organic farm with access to nutrition, education, and therapy, and a 32,000 square foot YMCA.
