Norton Shores is one of Michigan's hidden gems and fastest growing communities on the shores of Lake Michigan. It is located in Muskegon County, which is known for its immense natural beauty, great residential plots, solid school system, and disticntive neighborhoods.

The town's 22,500 residents enjoy scenic landscapes unlike anything else in the State. Within minutes, you can access six miles of shoreline on Lake Michigan and various access points on Mona Lake and Black Lake. The nearby Hoffmaster State Park is considered by many connoisseurs to be the most pleasant park in all of Michigan. Toss in a number of municipal parks located in and around the town, and you've go the makings of one of the greenest, eye-popping enclaves in Michigan.

Despite the town's heavy emphasis on residential living, Norton Shores does enjoy a healthy mix of commercial and industrial development. A well planned industrial park is currently a hotbed for a number of new 'clean technological industries' looking for a fresh start. Several distinct retail shopping zones are strategically placed so that no home is more than ten minutes from them.

Norton Shores is THE place to be if you're looking for a quiet life with high quality of living. It's no wonder that the town has been a county leader in residential permits for 5 years straight!
