<strong>County</strong> contained a number of villages where population<br />
was concentrated. By 1920, two significant developments<br />
occurred that would shape the future of <strong>Macomb</strong>. The first<br />
was the establishment of Selfridge Field near Mount Clemens<br />
in 1917, which was to spur growth of that area. The<br />
other development, much more significant, was the beginning<br />
of the urbanization movement northward from the<br />
City of Detroit.<br />
<strong>Macomb</strong> <strong>County</strong> is located within the northern segment<br />
of one of the largest metropolitan areas in the nation.<br />
As such, itenjoys the benefitsofthe larger urban center, Detroit,<br />
while still possessing suburban and rural characteristics.<br />
The <strong>County</strong> Seat, Mount Clemens, is approximately<br />
twenty miles north of the City of Detroit, 80 miles north of<br />
Toledo and 285 miles northeast of Chicago. Excellent highway<br />
routes to Canada and all parts ofthe United States accentuate<br />
<strong>Macomb</strong> <strong>County</strong>'s favorable location. The<br />
dynamics of the Detroit Metropolitan Area are reflected in<br />
the substantial residential, commercial and industrial development<br />
ofthe <strong>County</strong>.<br />
The locational advantages of the <strong>County</strong> are among its<br />
best assets. These include:<br />
• A good system of interstate, State and <strong>County</strong> highways,<br />
with more to be constructed;<br />
• Close prox:imity to important businessand industrial<br />
centers in the State;<br />
• Large recreation facilities located within the<br />
<strong>County</strong>;<br />
• Open land for the development of residential, commercial,<br />
industrial and recreational uses;<br />
• Access to the commercial and recreational advantages<br />
ofthe Great Lakes.<br />
These factors continue to playa large part in the growth<br />
of <strong>Macomb</strong> <strong>County</strong>. Currently, the population of <strong>Macomb</strong><br />
<strong>County</strong> is approximately 686,000 persons.<br />
Only 482 square miles in area, <strong>Macomb</strong> <strong>County</strong> is the<br />
ninth smallest of<strong>Michigan</strong>'s 83 counties, yetithasa popula<br />
10<br />
tion which ranks third in the State and is larger than that of<br />
seven states and the District ofColumbia.<br />
<strong>Macomb</strong> <strong>County</strong> is known as ''The Boating Capital of<br />
the World" since there are over 40,000 pleasure crafts registered<br />
in the <strong>County</strong>, most of which are berthed at the 91<br />
marinas and at homes located on the many miles of canals<br />
and shoreline.<br />
There are four privately licensed airports in the<br />
<strong>County</strong>. Selfridge Air National Guard Base in Harrison<br />
Township is the home of elements of the active Air Force,<br />
Air Force Reserve, Air National Guard, Army, Navy,<br />
Marine Corps and Coast Guard. Selfridge takes pride in<br />
being the only base to have permanently assigned flying<br />
units from aU five of the uniformed services.<br />
Each ofthe automotive "BigThree" hasextensive operations<br />
in <strong>Macomb</strong> <strong>County</strong>, the largest being the General<br />
Motors Technical Center, located in Warren. The Tech<br />
Center is where many General Motors products are developed<br />
and it's often called "the magic square mile." The<br />
site covers more than 1,000 acres and the entire research<br />
complex was designed by Eero Saarinen.<br />
Chrysler Corporation has eight operations in the<br />
<strong>County</strong>, including the new Sterling Heights Assembly<br />
Plant which began operation in late 1984.<br />
Romeo is the home ofFord Motor Company's <strong>Michigan</strong><br />
Proving Grounds and Tractor and Equipment Plant, two of<br />
eight Ford operations located in <strong>Macomb</strong> <strong>County</strong>. Ford's<br />
newly expanded Vinyl Plant and Paint Plant in Mount Clemens,<br />
two automotive assembly operations in Utica and<br />
Chesterfield, the Sterling Axle Plant and the Van Dyke<br />
Transmission and Chassis Plant complete <strong>Macomb</strong>'s Ford<br />
family.<br />
Agriculture is an important industry in <strong>Macomb</strong><br />
<strong>County</strong>. Its diversified program includes such products as<br />
roseS, mushrooms, bedding plants, sod, cash crops, vegetables,<br />
nursery stock, fruit, dairy and beef. These are but a few<br />
of the total oftwenty-one different agricultural enterprises<br />
