Allen, Michigan, is the "antique capital of Michigan". It is located in the northwest corner of Hillsdale County at highways 12 and 49. The village of Allen has a population of about 225. It seems that everyone is an antique dealer. Many of the businesses in Allen are homes turned into antique stores. There are several antique malls about a mile outside of the village limits. One of them boasts over 400 dealers.

The Allen Antique Barn, Allen Antique Mall, Capitol Antiques, Hog Creek Craft and Antique Mall, Preston's Antique Gaslight Village, and Primitive Connection combine for over 1,000 booths of antiquities and collectibles. All are clean and climate controlled for comfortable shopping nearly every day of the year.
Allen has no hotels or motels. Jonesville, just 5 miles East of town has the nearest lodging facilities. The Munro House Bed and Breakfast is the most comfortable lodging in town and is located near a dozen restaurants from home cooking to fast food to fine dining. A historic home with incredible history, a tour of the home and interesting stories are always included with an overnight stay. Open 7 days a week, the Munro House has hosted guests from all 50 states and over 60 foreign countries.
