I moved back to this area a couple of years ago. But not because of affordability. Gas prices are higher here than most of the midwest. Health care is terrible. I travel 5.5 hrs for my heart health. The city of Marquette home cost and rental compete with rent prices in major city of the USA. And wages as you covered are lower. I lived in Minot North Dakota for a decade. Utility prices were way more affordable out there. Ya this area isn't really affordable. You don't live here because of affordability and job opportunities. You live here because this area has many outdoor opportunities.
What city would you have to go to for specialized health care if Marquette doesn't have it? seems like you would have to travel a crazy long time for any other bigger city.
It’s not that they don’t have ANY specialized healthcare, they do have some. It just depends on what you may be dealing with on where you’d need to go. Some haven’t had to go anywhere ever. Bigger cities like Green Bay or Milwaukee have options.
Very expensive, high taxes, high food prices, very limited entertainment, very cold nine months of the year, high insurance, better like three feet of snow at once!
That’s a little extreme! We can get buried at times though, especially the higher elevation away from the lake! It’s a very outdoorsy area, so if you don’t like the 4 or 2 or 3 seasons you may not like it! 9 months of snow is a bit of a stretch, but yes there’s been months of snow in May and September that I can remember.
This video is titled “cost of living in Marquette Michigan” but don’t talk about any of the cost of living there outside the home prices. What’s the point of anyone watching this video if they can get the same answers from Zillow? You should rename this video to “Home prices in Marquette Michigan 2024” instead. I’m a bit upset this wasted my time.
Hey man, cool channel! Keep it up!
Thanks! Checked yours out too, great job!

My husband is military, he'll be working in Marquette for the next 3 years. Reports in Dec. When should we start looking at homes?
That all depends on the individual on how selective one is for homes. Also the budget! Send me an email, we can set up a zoom and chat!
there is military there again?
Not an air base again; this would be for the ROTC program they have!
@@baron7755 hubs is gonna be a rotc instructor for a college out there

It's the worst, I agree, It's awful here😅

Is this AI? The words and lips don't match
Does it look AI? But seriously, it’s just a Logitech camera that for whatever reason lags behind. I’m not technically advanced enough to fix it!
