It might be noteworthy that the population figures, male to female ratios, etc. for Freeland seem to be greatly affected by the Saginaw Correctional Facility located in Freeland. Currently the Demographics section notes "For every 100 females there were 161.1 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 182.6 males." This is surely heavily impacted by the all-male correctional facility which seems to have a capacity of approx. 1,250 inmates. I'm not sure how that should be addressed in the article page...if it even should. The population and male-to-female ratios just jumped out at me and I suddenly realized "Oh, its the prison thats affecting the numbers that way." and thought I'd note it here.
