11,746 people call this place home, and the median income is $67,885 - not bad, but the bureaucracy is a persistent headache. The population is predominantly white (97%) and aging, with over a quarter of residents over 45. While the lakeside setting is picturesque, the harsh Michigan winters and average commute times of over 30 minutes are something to consider. Overall, Fenton is a sleepy, middle-class suburb best suited for families looking to escape the bustle of nearby Flint.
