Macomb County runs along Lake St. Clair and includes Michigan's third-largest city, Warren, along with fast-growing communities like Macomb Township. A large stock of single-story, ranch-style homes across the county happens to be well-suited to aging in place — one less renovation headache for families weighing their options.
Macomb County has strong multigenerational household patterns in several of its communities, which often makes the self-directed family caregiver path a natural fit rather than a stretch.
Home Help applications and assessments are handled through your local MDHHS county office. MDHHS maintains an official, up-to-date directory of every county office — that's the most reliable place to confirm your specific office's current contact details: michigan.gov/mdhhs county office directory.
