Residents can observe the process of democracy while marveling at the beauty of a state Capitol building and then head up the road for Division I college football. Lansing is centrally located and within 90 minutes of 90% of the state’s population, so Lansing is not only a great place to explore on its own, but it’s also a fantastic base for day trips throughout the southern half of the lower peninsula.
