Clawson, MI Colleges and Universities: College Degrees in Small Town Comfort

Published: November, 2010

The safest city in Oakland County, Clawson, Michigan offers all the advantages of small town America, with a population of only 12,342. It has a pedestrian-friendly downtown with vintage style buildings and houses, tree-lined streets planted with colorful flowers, and a variety of retail stores, restaurants, and entertainment for Clawson's residents.

Even though it's only 10 miles away from the bustling Detroit metro area and all that it has to offer, Clawson is able to maintain its small-town charm. Its Downtown Development Authority has been working to expand the commerce of this small Michigan town, with the result that the downtown area has been revitalized.

Transportation equipment (13%) is the top industry for men and health care (17%) is the top employer for women. The professional, scientific, and technical services industry is the second most common for both men and women working in Clawson. At 7.4% lower than the U.S. average, the cost of living in Clawson is reasonable and Clawson public schools spend more per student than the average U.S. expenditure.
