Region Map_Prosperity Regions.pdf

This file is a map showing the State of Michigan's Prosperity Regions, created by the Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) dated 8/6/2013. The map divides Michigan into 10 distinct prosperity regions, with the Upper Peninsula (Region 1) further subdivided into three sub-regions (Western, Central, and Eastern UP). The regions are color-coded and include: Upper Peninsula Prosperity Alliance (light blue), Northwest Prosperity Region (pink), Northeast Prosperity Region (mint green), West Michigan Prosperity Alliance (purple), East Central Michigan Prosperity Region (tan), East Michigan Prosperity Region (blue), South Central Prosperity Region (orange), Southwest Prosperity Region (dark blue), Southeast Michigan Prosperity Region (light green), and Detroit Metro Prosperity Region (dark green).

The map provides a detailed county-by-county breakdown of each prosperity region, with all 83 Michigan counties clearly labeled and assigned to their respective regions. The map also indicates Service Delivery Regions with dotted lines, though these are not prominently featured in the legend. The purpose of this regional division appears to be for coordinating economic development and service delivery across the state, with particular attention paid to geographic and economic similarities between grouped counties.
