This county is part of Northwest Indiana as well as the Chicago metropolitan area. Porter County is the site of the Indiana Dunes, an area of ecological significance.[8][9][10] A museum called the Hour Glass in Ogden Dunes has exhibits that document the ecological significance.[11] HistoryThe area of Indiana which became Porter County was occupied by an Algonquian people named by the archeologist as the Huber-Berrien.[12] This subsistence culture arrived after the glaciers retreated somewhere around 15,000 years ago and the rise of glacial Lake Algonquian, 4–8,000 years ago.[13] The native people of this area were next recorded during the Iroquois Wars (1641–1701) as being Potawatomi and Miami. The trading post system used by the French and then the English encouraged native people to live in central villages along major waterways. Therefore, there are no recorded villages within Porter County's current boundaries. It was not until 1830 when Chiqua's town and Tassinong appear on maps and in records.[12] Chiqua's town is a mile east of Valparaiso on State Route 2, the old Sauk Trail. Tassinong is south of Valparaiso about {{convert|5|mi|km}} on State Route 49 at Baum's Bridge Road, the main route across the Great Kankakee Marsh.[14] Porter County was formed in 1836. From 1832 to 1836, the area that became Porter County was part of La Porte County.[15] It was named for Capt. David Porter, naval officer during the Barbary Wars and the War of 1812.[16][17] In 1962, Bethlehem Steel built a large integrated steel mill on the shores of Lake Michigan, which is now owned and operated by ArcelorMittal. The construction of the mill, as well as the neighboring Port of Indiana, generated enormous controversy between industrial interests and locals who wanted to conserve the natural shoreline and habitat. Although the activists lost and the steel mill and port were constructed, the U.S. Congress created the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore in 1966 to protect the area's unique natural habitat. [18] GeographyAccording to the 2010 census, the county has an area of {{convert|521.78|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|418.15|sqmi}} (or 80.14%) is land and {{convert|103.63|sqmi}} (or 19.86%) is water,[21] most of it in Lake Michigan. The highest point, at {{convert|870|ft}},[3] is in northeastern Jackson Township near County Road East 950 North and County Line Road. The lowest point, at {{convert|585|ft}},[4] is along the Lake Michigan shoreline. Major highways{{columns-list|colwidth=30em|

County Council: The county council is the legislative branch of the county government and controls all the spending and revenue collection in the county. Representatives are elected from county districts. The council members serve four-year terms. They set salaries, the annual budget and special spending. The council also has limited authority to impose local taxes, in the form of an income and property tax that is subject to state level approval, excise taxes and service taxes.[23][24]Board of Commissioners: The executive body of the county is made of a board of commissioners. The commissioners are elected county-wide, in staggered terms, and each serves a four-year term. One of the commissioners, typically the most senior, serves as president. The commissioners are charged with executing the acts legislated by the council, the collection of revenue and managing the daily functions of the county government.[23][24]Court: The county maintains a small claims court that can handle some civil cases. The judge on the court is elected to a term of four years and must be a member of the Indiana Bar Association. The judge is assisted by a constable who is also elected to a four-year term. In some cases, court decisions can be appealed to the state level circuit court.[24]County Officials: The county has several other elected offices, including sheriff, coroner, auditor, treasurer, recorder, surveyor, and circuit court clerk Each of these elected officers serves a term of four years and oversees a different part of county government. Members elected to county government positions are required to declare party affiliations and to be residents of the county.[24]Porter County is part of Indiana's 1st congressional district and in 2008 was represented by Pete Visclosky in the United States Congress.[25] For most of its history, Porter County was a Republican Party stronghold in presidential elections. It has become a swing county in recent years, voting for the national winner in every presidential election from 1996 on. {{Hidden begin|titlestyle = background:#ccccff; |title = Presidential election results }}
