Somewhere in Michigan, n miles from Detroit
As a Michigander who grew up three hours from Metro Detroit, I’m always amused by sentences like this (emphasis mine):
In southwestern Michigan, about 30 vehicles were involved in a deadly series of pileups on a six-mile stretch of Interstate 94 north of Stevensville, about 175 miles west of Detroit.
Stevensville is a village just off the Lake Michigan shoreline, about 70 miles east of Chicago.
