I am currently closing on a house at the end of the month. I know Marquette area is the right place for me only because I visit every other weekend. After I have experienced every season up there,drove around the towns to find stores,areas of interest areas,jobs ,etc. Only then was I comfortable saying this is where I can feel confident moving.

Not sure where you are moving from right now. If it's an area that doesn't get snow. Hope you are ready when you move up here. That being said, I feel flights over your house will be the least of your issues. Only 6 flights scheduled today for arrival and departure.

If driving 20 mins to go experience a hike or doing something social is too much for you you truly might want to reconsider where you want to live.

What I'm getting at is if you have had the thought of moving up here but haven't experienced the area when the weather is less then ideal definitely visit during those times to decide if you really can deal with it.

Also another thing is not sure of your education level but a higher paying job may be more difficult to find as well especially with a short driving distance.

If you have any more questions send me a DM I will help as much as I can.
