Suggested Meta Ads setup in Michigan
Meta location targeting supports countries, states, cities, ZIP codes and a radius around an address. Ads in Special Ad Categories (housing, employment, credit, and social issues or politics) have restricted targeting options, including a minimum 15-mile radius, so clients in those categories need their geography planned accordingly.
City-only audiences
Detroit (~677,000), Grand Rapids (~195,000) and Warren (~134,000) are large enough to start with city targeting alone.
Radius audiences
For the 7 smaller markets, use a radius that pulls in nearby served cities, e.g. Saginaw → Bay City (12 mi), Portage → Kalamazoo (6 mi) and Midland → Bay City (18 mi).
Statewide retargeting
One retargeting audience across all 30 Michigan markets keeps follow-up ads running even where prospecting audiences are small.
