Jackson County, Administrative county in western Wisconsin, United States
Jackson County spans across forests and rolling hills, with the Black River flowing through its central region near the county seat of Black River Falls.
The county was established in 1853 and named after Andrew Jackson, the seventh President of the United States, who served from 1829 to 1837.
The Ho-Chunk Nation maintains its administrative headquarters in Black River Falls, contributing to the region's Native American heritage and contemporary governance.
The county offers numerous outdoor recreation spots, including Lake Arbutus and multiple hiking trails, accessible through Interstate 94 and US Highway 12.
The Black River Flowage, created by a hydroelectric dam, forms a 200-acre water body that supports local energy production and water activities.
