Lansing has decided to make the once temporary social districts a permanent feature. You can now drink booze walking down the street, but only in certain zones.
While this social district idea does not directly affect establishments that don’t have a liquor license, they will still see an increase in traffic from people coming into the social districts.
These are among the more fun things to come out of the pandemic as Michigan downtowns try to get back to normal, here's where Jackson may be getting one!
Currently 39 Michigan cities have created social districts in 23 counties. Some places where you can currently participate in a social districts are Wyandotte, Northville, Mount Clements, Petoskey, Dundee, Saugatuck and Ludington.
