The following is a list of unincorporated communities in the Upper Peninsula in the U.S. state of Michigan.
The sparsely-populated Upper Peninsula contains only 41 incorporated municipalities (24 cities and 17 villages). With a population of 301,609 at the 2020 census, the region contains roughly 3% of the state's total population.[1] At 16,378 square miles (42,420 km2) of land, it contains around 28% of the state's total land area.[a] There are 15 counties in the Upper Peninsula and a total of 149 townships (142 civil townships and seven charter townships). Because of its remote and rural environment, the region contains a large number of historic and present-day unincorporated communities.
All unincorporated communities included are those that have a Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) identification listing the location as a populated place that is not within the boundaries of an incorporated city or village. Census-designated places are also classified as unincorporated communities, and the Upper Peninsula contains 47 of the 212 census-designated places in Michigan.[2]
