}}Interlochen is an unincorporated village in Northwest Lower Michigan. It is in Green Lake Township, within Grand Traverse County. The community is noted for the internationally renowned Interlochen Center for the Arts. As of the 2010 census, the Interlochen census-designated place (CDP) had a population of 583.[2]

History

Before the arrival of European settlers, members of the Odawa people lived between the lakes they called Wahbekaness and Wahbekanetta (now named Duck Lake and Green Lake, respectively). Beginning in the late 19th century, European settlers began logging and fishing industries in the area. As the lumber industry grew, the area became more deforested, until in 1917 the state of Michigan purchased the remaining virgin pines and created Interlochen State Park, the first state park in Michigan.[3] In 1928, the National High School Orchestra Camp was founded at Interlochen and evolved to become Interlochen Center for the Arts, which includes a summer camp as well as a fine arts boarding high school and public radio station.

Geography

As the name suggests, Interlochen is situated between the two lakes of the original Odawa settlement. It is {{convert|14|mi}} southwest of Traverse City at {{coord|44|38|43|N|85|46|02|W|display=inline}}, and sits at an elevation of {{convert|841|ft}} above sea level. The ZIP Code is 49643.

Climate

Interlochen lies close to the 45th parallel north, approximately halfway between the equator and the north pole. It therefore experiences typical Northern Michigan weather: very cold in the winter, and very warm in the summer. Interlochen is close enough to Lake Michigan that it experiences heavy lake-effect snow, but not close enough to be cooled by the Great Lake's breeze, furthering the extremes of the winter and summer seasons. However, other lake-effect precipitation in the summer is also present, causing lush greenery and magnificent thunderstorms, and making Interlochen picturesque in the summer as well as in the winter.

Demographics

According to the census of 2010, there were 583 people, 240 households, and 142 families residing in the Interlochen CDP. The population density was 470.0 people per square mile (181.5/km²). There were 277 housing units at an average density of 223.3 per square mile (86.2/km²).[4]

As of the 2010 census, the racial makeup of the CDP was 95.2% White, 2.2% Native American, 0.5% African-American or Black, 0.2% Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, 0.2% some other race, and 1.7% from two or more races. 1.9% of the population were Hispanic or Latino, who can be of any race.[4]

In the CDP, the population was spread out with 25.4% under the age of 18, 8.9% from 18 to 24, 33.3% from 25 to 44, 24.0% from 45 to 64, and 8.4% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 32.3 years. For every 100 females, there were 104.6 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 98.6 males.[4]

Government

The Village of Interlochen is an unincorporated community and does not have its own local government, but is governed locally by Green Lake Township. The township offices are located in Interlochen.[5] Some governmental services are also provided by the county.

Interlochen Center for the Arts also provides its own form of non-governmental security who provide the community with constant video and motion surveillance that extends from its campus buildings and dorm rooms to the local woods area. The service diligently monitors the students living in the area and provide severe and nonjudicial punishment to those who make minor offences. This service has been controversial in the expulsion of its most talented students, often permanently damaging their artistic careers.

Media

Interlochen is home to 88.7 WIAA, which is run by the Interlochen Center for the Arts and operates as Northern Michigan's National Public Radio affiliate.

Transportation

Highways

  • {{jct|state=MI|US|31}} runs along the northern edge of Interlochen. The highway mainly parallels the Lake Michigan shore, and runs for {{convert|356|mi|km}} in a northerly direction from the Indiana-Michigan state line southwest of Niles to its terminus at I-75 south of Mackinaw City.
  • {{jct|state=MI|M|137}} is a {{convert|2.89|mi|km|adj=on}} north-south spur between US 31 at the north end and Interlochen Center for the Arts and Interlochen State Park at the southern terminus (the road continues south as Grand Traverse County Road 137, also known as Karlin Road).

Public transportation

Interlochen is served by Traverse City's public transportation system, the Bay Area Transportation Authority (BATA) which serves most of the Grand Traverse region with dial-a-ride services. BATA debuted its first hybrid bus in December 2005. BATA recently completed a bus transfer terminal on Hall Street in Traverse City, which opened July 21, 2006. The terminal is used to transfer riders to different buses on different routes. BATA also links riders to the Greyhound terminal for regional and long-distance travel.
