Bradford is a small town in Michigan of about 3000. It is located in south central Michigan, just off of I-67 and close to the Indiana border. Bradford itself is fictitious. There is an I-69 that runs from Fort Wayne in the northwest corner of Indiana. I-67 should be east of that, but there isn't a lot of room left before Ohio.
"General" was what everyone called the General Hardware Retailers Distribution Center out at the edge of town, the biggest employer in the area.GM01
Bradford is significant for being the home of Bradford Exiles, members of the Bradford High School Class of 1988 that needed to leave their hometown, whether willingly or not. Members include Jennlynn Swift, the class valedictorian, and Dayna Berkshire. Emily Jones Holst is not an exile, but as a class member, major gossip, and fixture in their hometown, is likely to provide a unifying point.
There was also a Bradford Elementary School.
