Lifestyle

Looking for the trifecta of livin' it up? Well you've found it. You've heard it before, people: you need a place to "live, work, play". Well, let's break it down and see what's game in Lansing:

  • By "play" we mean hit up the nightlife, summer festivals, and Lugnuts games
  • The whole "work" idea can be daunting, but face it-- you need a job (or an internship). Good news for you, Lansing has opportunities for both right down the street-- that's Michigan Avenue and it takes you from campus to the Capitol Building, and everything in between.
  • And as for "live", well unless you're already shackin' up in a fancy loft with your fellow students and/or young professionals and enjoying a busy daylife and hot nightlife just seconds out your front door... let's talk.

Residential

An infusion of loft apartments and upscale condos in downtown Lansing-- 450 new units over the last 4 years!-- has greatly diversified Lansing as a residential destination. With welcoming neighborhoods spanning out in every direction from the city's core, a consistent stream of people moving in from surrounding communities, and other local trends, the city's social value as a destination is being consistently enhanced.

Lansing's urban appeal creates an energetic hub for educational, economic, entertainment and employment opportunities. The combination of these factors constantly improve Lansing's allure to a diverse market of young talent, including entrepreneurs, professionals and future business leaders. City-wide resurgence of economic energy and enthusiasm has also led to an increase in community participation and satisfaction for long-time residents.

Residents of Lansing enjoy a variety of world-class recreation, community activities and entertainment. Community assets such as the downtown riverfront and River Trail, the State Legislature, a junior professional baseball stadium, live professional theaters, a family science museum, arts and cultural opportunities, and the growing entertainment scene are giving residents, new and old, the chance-- and motivation!-- to discover, or rediscover, Lansing as their home.
