Brooklyn Jobs

Brooklyn is a village in Jackson County of the U.S. state of Michigan. As of the 2000 census, the village population was 1,176. It is located just off U.S. Highway 12 . The Michigan International Speedway is located just south of the village, in NW Lenawee County. Brooklyn is located in a portion of central lower Michigan known for its lush, rolling green landscapes called the Irish Hills. The area was primarily a summer vacation spot for residents of metropolitan Detroit who owned cottages near lakes in the area. In recent years -- and with the addition of Michigan International Speedway and Interstate 94 -- Brooklyn and other nearby cities have established year-round populations. Brooklyn has become a popular destination for 4th of July celebrations. A number of notable fireworks displays take place in the area, including those at Lake Columbia and Clark Lake. The most prominent display, though, takes place at the middle school football field in downtown Brooklyn. Tourists...more
