Traverse City is a great place to live, work and play.
Located on the south shore of the Grand Traverse Bay of Lake Michigan, Traverse City is not too small and not too large. The Grand Traverse area has a pleasing mix of natural beauty, availability of four-season recreational activities along with a variety of fine arts cultural choices.
