The City of Saline is situated along Michigan Avenue ten miles southwest of Ann Arbor. The location provides access to all the conveniences of a larger city, while offering its residents a country setting.

Saline Community Hospital offers health care, senior housing and a convalescence home. Health care is available 24-hours through emergency services. The Saline Community Hospital is also associated with Saint Joseph Mercy Health System in Ann Arbor.

Saline is host to many events and festivals throughout the seasons. One such festival is the Saline Celtic Fest, at which you will find traditional Celtic music, merchants selling Scottish and Celtic wares, and witness lord and ladies in Celtic garb and armor taking part in field activities.
The Ann Arbor Antiques market is held April through November. Over 350 dealers bring their wares to the Washtenaw Farm Council Grounds where buyers from all over the United States and Canada come to buy antiques. Saline also has many antique shops along its mainstreet. Each of the shops has an array of merchandise ranging from 19th century glassware to out-of-print books and custom decorating services.

In the fall, the Saline Community Fair and Parade are held at the fairgrounds and give area youths an opportunity to show their livestock and produce in the 4-H judgings. Saline students are given half-days of school in order to take part in the festivities and catch one last blast of summertime fun.

When the weather turns colder and December rolls around, the annual Christmas Parade & Santa’s Village is a delight for eager children awaiting the holiday season. The whole town turns out to shop late on Mainstreet and kickoff the holiday season.
