Hale is a one stoplight town, literally. Everything we need we can walk to. Mechanic, grocery stores, bank, post office, all within a half mile. Tawas City is 15 miles east, hospitals, doctors, dentist, Walmart, other supermarkets. West Branch is 20 miles west. Same road. All the same stuff.
In the winter we can hike in the forest behind our house. Last winter our car didn’t leave the drive for almost 3 weeks.
