What is New Hudson?
This is a town in Michigan that immediately elicits a blank expression on people's faces when you tell them that you live there until you mention that "it's right next to South Lyon." New Hudson has a proud business district consisting of chain restaurants and stores, and because of this, it is frequently shopped at while simultaneously looked down upon by South Lyonites.
New Hudsonites are like the John Snow of South Lyon – we are looked down upon because we aren’t part of the South Lyon bloodline and frequently excluded from South Lyon Facebook groups and activities because we live in Lyon Township and not South Lyon Township. New Hudsonites, however, don’t have their head chronically jammed up their own ass simply for the fact of buying a house in South Lyon. Once we overheard some Lyonites at a garage sale mention that their house had ‘two-quarter acres’ - true story. And let’s not forget about the South Lyon uproar of 2018 when everyone from South Lyon lost their shit when it was announced that instead of gridlocking their two main roads and filling up all side roads due to inadequate parking, they would host Pumpkinfest at the large, spaciously accommodating park in New Hudson. The Facebook comments went wild and they showed their true feelings for New Hudson – the town they all literally HAVE to drive through to go anywhere on the highway.
I'm from New Hudson...…….er… Lyon Township.
