Lake Orion

Established in 1859
Population: 38,304
Average Sale Price: $345,684

Settled in the early 1800s by upstate New Yorkers, Lake Orion grew quickly into a bustling commercial center thanks to the local sawmill, and the power dam which formed what is now the 506-acre namesake lake. Fun fact: Lake Orion was a popular vacation spot in the early 1900s and prompted the formation of the country’s first marine postal service!

Technically, Lake Orion is the original downtown village of Orion Township. Most of the homes are actually in Orion Township, but everyone refers to both as “Lake Orion.” There are good schools, community services, and the outdoor recreational activities are unsurpassed. Lake Orion is a wonderful and highly-sought after place to call home, so much so that the city slogan is “where living is a vacation.”
