Vienna Corners is a small, unnamed place in the state of Michigan, USA. It's not a city or a town with official borders. Instead, it's a community that grew up around a main road called M-32. This special spot sits right on the line between two counties: Otsego County to the west and Montmorency County to the east. Because it's "unincorporated," Vienna Corners doesn't have its own government or official population count.
