Town
[edit]Not only does the Census Bureau declare this as a town, but a google search will yield a number of hits for the town. I assume the town is named after the lake it sits next to (or around). Even Michigan's website claims it is a city. So thus, I added back the data. I don't know if it was a vandal that added it or something else. -- RM
Actual Town
[edit]Paw Paw Lake is not a town. Paw Paw Lake is the name of the lake that is bordered by two towns. On the West side of the lake is a town by the name of Coloma and to the East is the town of Watervliet. Paw Paw Lake is often thought to be in Paw Paw, Michigan but, it is not. Paw Paw Lake is a spring fed 900 acre, All Sports lake that is dam controlled by the Army Corp. of Engineers. Thanks so much. A proud resident of Coloma.
- The present revision of the article does not say it is a town. It is however designated by the census bureau as a place for statistical purposes. In fact, there is no official meaning to "town" in Michigan. The only official designations for municipalities are villages and cities (and perhaps charter townships). Townships and counties are other forms of local government (along with some assorted others like school districts). BTW, if there is no entry for Paw Paw Lake, feel free to create it. older≠wiser 21:19, 10 Jun 2004 (UTC)
