County contained a number of villages where population 

was concentrated. By 1920, two significant developments 

occurred that would shape the future of Macomb. The first 

was the establishment of Selfridge Field near Mount Clemens 

in 1917, which was to spur growth of that area. The 

other development, much more significant, was the beginning 

of the urbanization movement northward from the 

City of Detroit. 

Macomb County is located within the northern segment 

of one of the largest metropolitan areas in the nation. 

As such, itenjoys the benefitsofthe larger urban center, Detroit, 

while still possessing suburban and rural characteristics. 

The County Seat, Mount Clemens, is approximately 

twenty miles north of the City of Detroit, 80 miles north of 

Toledo and 285 miles northeast of Chicago. Excellent highway 

routes to Canada and all parts ofthe United States accentuate 

Macomb County's favorable location. The 

dynamics of the Detroit Metropolitan Area are reflected in 

the substantial residential, commercial and industrial development 

ofthe County. 

The locational advantages of the County are among its 

best assets. These include: 

• A good system of interstate, State and County highways, 

with more to be constructed; 

• Close prox:imity to important businessand industrial 

centers in the State; 

• Large recreation facilities located within the 

County; 

• Open land for the development of residential, commercial, 

industrial and recreational uses; 

• Access to the commercial and recreational advantages 

ofthe Great Lakes. 

These factors continue to playa large part in the growth 

of Macomb County. Currently, the population of Macomb 

County is approximately 686,000 persons. 

Only 482 square miles in area, Macomb County is the 

ninth smallest ofMichigan's 83 counties, yetithasa popula 

10 

tion which ranks third in the State and is larger than that of 

seven states and the District ofColumbia. 

Macomb County is known as ''The Boating Capital of 

the World" since there are over 40,000 pleasure crafts registered 

in the County, most of which are berthed at the 91 

marinas and at homes located on the many miles of canals 

and shoreline. 

There are four privately licensed airports in the 

County. Selfridge Air National Guard Base in Harrison 

Township is the home of elements of the active Air Force, 

Air Force Reserve, Air National Guard, Army, Navy, 

Marine Corps and Coast Guard. Selfridge takes pride in 

being the only base to have permanently assigned flying 

units from aU five of the uniformed services. 

Each ofthe automotive "BigThree" hasextensive operations 

in Macomb County, the largest being the General 

Motors Technical Center, located in Warren. The Tech 

Center is where many General Motors products are developed 

and it's often called "the magic square mile." The 

site covers more than 1,000 acres and the entire research 

complex was designed by Eero Saarinen. 

Chrysler Corporation has eight operations in the 

County, including the new Sterling Heights Assembly 

Plant which began operation in late 1984. 

Romeo is the home ofFord Motor Company's Michigan 

Proving Grounds and Tractor and Equipment Plant, two of 

eight Ford operations located in Macomb County. Ford's 

newly expanded Vinyl Plant and Paint Plant in Mount Clemens, 

two automotive assembly operations in Utica and 

Chesterfield, the Sterling Axle Plant and the Van Dyke 

Transmission and Chassis Plant complete Macomb's Ford 

family. 

Agriculture is an important industry in Macomb 

County. Its diversified program includes such products as 

roseS, mushrooms, bedding plants, sod, cash crops, vegetables, 

nursery stock, fruit, dairy and beef. These are but a few 

of the total oftwenty-one different agricultural enterprises 

flourishing in Macomb County.
