Urban neighborhood in Saginaw

Adams Boulevard is an older neighborhood in Saginaw, characterized by its urban setting, tree-lined streets, and close-knit homes. The area reflects the resilience of a community that has weathered economic changes, including the departure of General Motors. "And what happened was it was heavily dependent on General Motors. General Motors pulled out right, and the people who could afford to move left and those that couldn't stayed And now you have what you have,” says Michelle Hill, Realtor with Ayre/Rhinehart REALTORS. Despite some urban blight and abandoned homes, the neighborhood still attracts residents who appreciate its affordable housing and proximity to amenities.
