Tuscola
6.9
High score (8-10)
Tuscola County's sugar beet processing in Caro and dairy farming give it some industrial employment that creates a thin working-class professional tier, and the county's position at the edge of the Thumb makes it slightly more connected to Saginaw Valley commerce than the purely rural Thumb counties to the north.
