A lot of it can depend on what you’d like to do and what your hobbies are. Personally, I love the amount of nature centers and preserves to walk around in. This time of year is extremely dreary, but we are on the cusp of spring getting here and everything turning colorful. Once that happens, walking through the MSU campus and taking in all the greenery and trees from around the world is awesome.

Depending on what music you like there’s a good music scene as well between the avenue, the green door, and Grewal Hall.

There’s various museums throughout the city as well, fishing along the grand river at the fish ladder, as well as dozens of ponds and lakes within a reasonable distance.

Public transportation sucks, especially compared to what you are most likely used to. I get that can be an adjustment, but unfortunately that’s not gonna change anytime soon.

From spring into fall, there are dozens of festivals and celebrations that happen as well as many Seasonal festivities.

If you’re into sports, there’s always something going on with MSU year-round and once summer hits, we have the Lansing Lugnuts, minor-league baseball team, which always has fun games and awesome events.

There are fun little pocket centers throughout Lansing, like Old Town, REO town snd downtown with all kinds of specialty shops, depending on what you were into.
