The geography of Michigan is pretty cool. You’ve got two peninsulas surrounded by four of the five Great Lakes. One shaped like a mitten. There’s everything from sandy beaches to dense forests, and even some small mountains up north.
Wayne County is where most of the action is. It’s the most populous county, and that’s mostly because of Detroit. Now, if you want peace and quiet, head up to Keweenaw County in the Upper Peninsula. It’s the least populous county in Michigan. Why? Well, it’s pretty remote, and it has long, snowy winters.
Most Populous: Wayne County
Least Populous: Keweenaw County
When it comes to size (excluding water), Marquette County is the largest county in Michigan. It actually covers a good portion of the Upper Peninsula. The smallest county is Benzie County, down in the Lower Peninsula.
Largest Area: Marquette County
Smallest Area: Benzie County
Michigan’s counties have some interesting stories. For example, Schoolcraft County is named after Henry Schoolcraft, the guy who “discovered” the source of the Mississippi River. Or how about Kalamazoo County? Its name comes from a Native American word.
