Menominee County, Administrative county in Upper Peninsula, Michigan, United States.

Menominee County spreads across Michigan's Upper Peninsula with forests and waterways that define its character. Green Bay forms its eastern boundary, while inland areas feature lakes, rivers, and mixed woodlands.

The county was established in 1861 as Bleeker County, carved from Delta County territory, and renamed Menominee in 1863 when the local government took shape. The name honors the Menominee Nation, who lived in this region for generations.

The Hannahville Indian Community maintains territories throughout the county, especially in Harris Township, keeping Anishinaabe traditions alive in the region. You can see this heritage reflected in local place names and community spaces.

US Highway 2 crosses the area east to west, while US 41 passes through the southern portions and M-35 follows the Green Bay shoreline. Most towns sit along these main roads, but secondary roads can be unpredictable in winter.

The region was originally named Bleeker County, a designation that faded from memory after the 1863 renaming. Few visitors realize that this earlier name marks an overlooked chapter in the county's past.
