Genesee County Metropatterns: A Regional Agenda for Community and Stability in Genesee County, MichiganMyron OrfieldUniversity of Minnesota Law School; Institute on Race and Poverty; Ameregis Thomas LuceAmeregis - Research April 2003 Abstract: This research identifies the suburban typology of Genesee County, Michigan through a study of the social and fiscal disparities within the region. Municipal tax base and other demographic data, such as poverty rates measured at the school-level, are used to show wide variations in the capacities of suburban municipalities to provide local public services. The results show that 59% percent of Genesee County's residents live in municipalities that either show clear signs of current fiscal and social stress or are at-risk of such difficulties in the near future. A range of regional fiscal, planning, and governance reforms are also evaluated.
