Located in the midwestern United States and sharing a border with Canada, Michigan is home to a variety of industries. Its largest cities include Detroit, Battle Creek, Lansing, Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids, and Flint.

Michigan is best known for its role in the automobile industry, particularly in the greater Detroit area. General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler are all headquartered in metropolitan Detroit. The state is also known for its role in food products, homing companies such as the Kellogg Company, Domino’s Pizza, and Little Caesars.

Another industry Michigan excels at is science and technology. Some of this comes from the automobile business, but Michigan’s universities also contribute. All four of the Big Four accounting firms have a branch in Michigan.
