40 under 40: Census data shows 20-something population stable, young adults explain why they stayed | MLive.com:
"Muskegon County's age 20- to 30-year-old population has remained steady according to U.S. Census data between the recent years of 2010 and 2012," said Amy Haak, program director of the West Michigan Shoreline Regional Development Commission.
"This shows that the Muskegon area is offering activities and venues that attract a younger population."

Examples, she said, include restaurants like Mia and Grace or Drip Drop Drink, a coffee spot that opened up recently inside the Russell Block Building. Both establishments offer specialty foods that are often organic and local, which "appeals to a younger demographic," Haak said.

Individuals in that age group however, cited personal connections and the opportunity to make a difference as main reasons for their decisions to stay."

This is drivel!
