I’m interested in any information people have on the following family medicine residency programs in southeast Michigan.

I’m specifically interested in the focus on inpatient vs outpatient training?

I’m also interested in the lifestyle?

St. John macomb and mclaren macomb are probably similar in quality and lifestyle. They both focus on outpatient and the lifestyle is good after intern year. Intern year is very busy as I'm sure it is at most programs. Mclaren Oakland has a history of not matching applicants so it's probably not as good. I've heard Beaumont is chill but you may not get to do as many procedures. From what I've heard, all the programs you've listed are solid except for mclaren Oakland.

My friends are at mclaren macomb and st john macomb. They basically only take people who do audition rotations. If you decide to audition at either one let me know.

I rotated 4th year FM at Providence. They had a more robust inpatient service then the residency I ended up at. The attendings were nice to work with. I did my outpatient FM at a more rural satellite location but they have their residency outpatient center located on site. They also have or had a primary care sports medicine program attached so you would get MSK training as well.
