The City That Feels Like a Village
Dexter, though one of Michigan's newest cities (just voted from a Village in 2014), holds onto its country charm. It rests on the banks of the Huron River. Just "close enough" to Ann Arbor but worlds away, Dexter's city center is 8 miles from the hustle and bustle of Downtown Ann Arbor. That is what has brought over 6,000 people to call it home.
Downtown Dexter is a destination that offers a mix of boutiques and shops, plus restaurants that range from casual pubs to fine dining. It seems like each weekend there is a festival going on in Monument Park. There is always something to do in Dexter. From exploring the chain of lakes that extend north to Pinckney to visiting the Metro Parks (all connected by a path), Dexter is perfect for activities of all types.
The schools are amazing and one of the biggest attributes of this quality community.
The MORE Group team leader, Brian Cowan, calls Dexter home, and loves walking along the Mill Creek boardwalk from his home in Westridge to Downtown Dexter.
