'''Otsego County''' ({{IPAc-en|ɒ|t|ˈ|s|i:|g|oʊ}} {{respell|ot|SEE|goh}}), formerly known as Okkuddo County, is a [[County (United States)|county]] located in the [[U.S. state]] of [[Michigan]]. As of the [[2020 United States census|2020 census]], the population was 25,091.<ref name="QF">{{Cite web |title=State & County QuickFacts |url=https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/otsegocountymichigan/POP010220 |access-date=September 15, 2021 |publisher=United States Census Bureau}}</ref> The [[county seat]] is [[Gaylord, Michigan|Gaylord]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Find a County |url=http://www.naco.org/Counties/Pages/FindACounty.aspx |access-date=June 7, 2011 |publisher=National Association of Counties}}</ref> The county was founded in 1840 and organized in 1875.<ref name=Clarke/>

==Etymology==
Otsego may be a [[Native Americans in the United States|Native American]] name meaning "place of the rock". However, an alternative theory is that it derives from a lake and a county in [[New York (state)|New York]] state, which are said to bear the name derived from a Mohawk Iroquoian word meaning either "clear water" or "meeting place."<ref>{{Cite web |title=History |url=http://www.otsegocountymi.gov/history.htm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080219142406/http://www.otsegocountymi.gov/history.htm |archive-date=February 19, 2008 |publisher=Otsego County}}</ref> It may be a [[neologism]] coined by [[Henry Schoolcraft]], who was a borrower of words and pieces of words from many languages (including Arabic, Greek, Latin, and various American Indian languages).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Michigan Counties |url=http://www.michigan.gov/hal/0,1607,7-160-15481_20826_20829-54126--,00.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090313052757/https://www.michigan.gov/hal/0,1607,7-160-15481_20826_20829-54126--,00.html |archive-date=March 13, 2009 |publisher=Michigan Department of History, Arts and Libraries}}</ref>  See [[List of Michigan county name etymologies]].

The county was created in 1840 as Okkuddo County<ref>{{Cite book |last=George Dawson |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=aDg4AAAAIAAJ&pg=PA196 |title=Acts of the Legislature of the State of Michigan Passed at the Annual Session of 1840 |date=1840 |location=Detroit |pages=196–200}}</ref> (meaning "sickly water," although the reason for using a name with such a negative meaning is lost). The name was changed to Otsego in 1843 after [[Otsego County, New York|the county in New York]], with the name ultimately deriving from a [[Mohawk language|Mohawk]] or [[Oneida language|Oneida]] word meaning "place of the rock."<ref>{{Cite web | title=Otsego | url=https://www.michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan/public/michigan/county-guides/guides/otsego | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221002122154/https://www.michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan/public/michigan/county-guides/guides/otsego | access-date=2025-05-04 | archive-date=2022-10-02}}</ref><ref name="DA">{{Cite book |url=http://soildatamart.nrcs.usda.gov/Manuscripts/MI137/0/Otsego_MI.pdf |title=Soil Survey of Otsego County |publisher=United States Department of Agriculture |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080410054923/http://soildatamart.nrcs.usda.gov/Manuscripts/MI137/0/Otsego_MI.pdf |archive-date=April 10, 2008}}</ref> It was organized in 1875.<ref name=Clarke/> On May 20, 2022, an EF3 tornado struck the county seat of Gaylord killing 2 and injuring 44 while causing major damage to the downtown business district and severely damaging a mobile home park.

==Geography==
According to the [[United States Census Bureau]], the county has a total area of {{convert|526|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|515|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|11|sqmi}} (2.1%) is water.<ref>{{Cite web |date=August 22, 2012 |title=2010 Census Gazetteer Files |url=https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_26.txt |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131113024015/http://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_26.txt |archive-date=November 13, 2013 |access-date=September 27, 2014 |publisher=United States Census Bureau}}</ref> It is the fifth-smallest county by total area in Michigan. Although it is located on Michigan's Lower Peninsula, Otsego County is considered to be part of [[Northern Michigan]].

Otsego County has more than 370 lakes, mostly in the southern part of the county. Otsego Lake is the county's largest and has a surface area of {{convert|1972|acre|km2}}. Other large lakes in the southern part of the county include Big Lake, Big Bear Lake, Buhl Lake, Crapo Lake, Dixon Lake, Douglas Lake, Guthrie Lake, Heart Lake, Lake Tecon, Manuka Lake, Opal Lake, Pencil Lake, and Turtle Lake. The larger lakes in the northern part of the county are Five Lakes, Hardwood Lake, Lake Twenty Seven, and Pickerel Lake. Many of these are so-called 'kettle lakes,' formed by the melting of blocks of glacial ice, left as the glacier retreated, which created a depression in the soil.<ref name=DA/>

Glaciers shaped the area, creating a unique regional ecosystem. A large portion of the area is the Grayling outwash plain, a broad outwash plain including sandy ice-disintegration ridges; jack pine barrens, some white pine-red pine forest, and northern hardwood forest. Large lakes were created by glacial action.<ref>{{Cite web |title=NPWRC :: Regional Landscape |url=http://www.npwrc.usgs.gov/resource/habitat/rlandscp/s7-2-2.htm |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130625181556/http://www.npwrc.usgs.gov/resource/habitat/rlandscp/s7-2-2.htm |archive-date=June 25, 2013 |publisher=United States Geological Survey}}</ref>

Headwaters of the Au Sable, Black, Manistee, Pigeon, and Sturgeon Rivers are in Otsego County. The Au Sable River watershed is the county's largest watershed.<ref name=DA/>

The county government operates the [[County jail|jail]], maintains rural roads, operates the major local courts, records deeds, mortgages, and [[vital records]], administers [[public health]] regulations, and participates with the state in the provision of social services. The [[county commission|county board of commissioners]] controls the budget and has limited authority to make laws or ordinances.
