You have stated the open carry is unrestricted in Michigan on the info page. It is if you don't have a CPL. But you are restricted if you don't have a CPL in these places (1) Sec. 234d (1) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (2), a person shall not possess a firearm on the premises of any of the following:
a) A depository financial institution or a subsidiary or affiliate of a depository financial institution.
b) A church or other house of religious worship.
c) A court.
d) A theatre.
e) A sports arena.
f) A day care center.
g) A hospital.
h) An establishment licensed under the Michigan liquor control act.

SO THERE IS SOME RESTRICTION. You may want to update that as well. And again open carry is becoming more popular in the city as well as rural areas. You might want to make note of that as well.
