Gistok, some parts of Shelby and especially Washington townships have retained a degree of country-like scenery, and that's great... but... those two places are the main strongholds of the mob, too! I forgot to mention Romeo and Richmond. Romeo is quaint with many historic homes and is still a small town, but becoming more sophisticated. Richmond, on the other hand, still feels like a farm community with a somewhat drab downtown, and doesn't offer the charm and amenities that Romeo does.

I think that a great strategy for Macomb would be to redevelop and rejuvenate the Gratiot corridor [[a la the Woodward corridor in Oakland) and keep St. Clair Shores vital.
