Originally called Dibbleville (chuckle about that for a second), and later, Fentonville, this town of just under 12,000 modern residents was eventually named Fenton in 1863. Sprawled across Genesee, Oakland and Livingston Counties in Michigan, Fenton has seen a lot of reconstruction since the 1970s, when its downtown was destroyed to make way for a more modern commercial center. In 2007, a tornado wiped out further construction that is still being redesigned and replaced. Several classic buildings, like the A.J. Philips Building, the U.S. Post Office and the Fenton Fire Hall, still remain. View Fenton City Guide
