There's a buzz about how attractive the Great Lakes area is going to be in the coming years, particularly for US citizens looking to get away from climate catastrophes (extreme drought in the southwest, battering storms in the southeast). Relatively low risk of natural disasters, plenty of fresh water, and (currently) affordable living. Michigan, particularly, is well suited for the coming years.
Me thinks the next 30 years are going to see migratory shifts in population bases in both the US and Canada, something that investment in infrastructure, housing policies, and job prospects will have to be accounting for.
