}}Osceola County is a county located in the U.S. state of Michigan. At the 2010 census, the population was 23,528.[2] The county seat is Reed City.[3]

History

When established by the Michigan Legislature on April 1, 1840, it was named Unwattin County,[4] after a leader of the local Ottawa people.[5] The name was changed March 8, 1843, to Osceola, after the Seminole chief who achieved renown in Florida.[1]

The county was initially attached for administrative purposes to Ottawa County. In 1855, it was attached to Mason County; in 1857, to Newaygo County; and in 1859, to Mecosta County.[4]

As the population increased, separate county government was organized in 1869, with Hersey designated as the county seat. Reed City became the official county seat in 1927.[1] The county was developed initially for harvesting and processing lumber, and many European Americans came to work in lumbering and the mills.

Geography

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of {{convert|573|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|566|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|6.7|sqmi}} (6.7%) is water.[6] The county is drained by Muskegon River and branches of the Manistee River. The surface is level.[7] Osceola County is part of Northern Michigan.

The county government operates the jail, maintains rural roads, operates the major local courts, keeps files of deeds and mortgages, maintains vital records, administers public health regulations, and participates with the state in the provision of welfare and other social services. The county board of commissioners controls the budget but has only limited authority to make laws or ordinances. In Michigan, most local government functions — police and fire, building and zoning, tax assessment, street maintenance, etc. — are the responsibility of individual cities and townships.
