After Grand Rapids, it is also the second most-populated city in West Michigan.
The area was first organized as Wyoming Township in 1848 when it was set off from the northern half of Byron Township. The township became incorporated as the city of Wyoming in 1959.
Starting in 2005, the Wyoming-Kentwood Chamber of Commerce put together the 28th Street Metro Cruise that draws in automobile enthusiasts from the region.
It currently spans 15 miles from its start in Grandville at Wilson and 28th where drivers gather and drive to the cruise’s end in Cascade Township. The cruise runs on Friday and Saturday on the last weekend of August.
