UPPER MICHIGAN - The latest census data is available, and Michigan is showing signs of growth. Nearly 28,000 new residents have come to Michigan in 2025, according to new census data. That’s a 0.3% increase.  Although the dataset didn’t provide county specifics, four out of 15 U.P. counties saw an increase in population from 2023 to 2024.   This is the fourth consecutive year the state’s population has increased.  Governor Gretchen Whitmer attributes the growth to an affordable, good quality of life in the state.
