Battle Creek is a city in the U.S. state of Michigan, in northwest Calhoun County, at the confluence of the Kalamazoo and Battle Creek rivers. It is the principal city of the Battle Creek, Michigan Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), which encompasses all of Calhoun County. As of the 2010 census, the city had a total population of 52,347, while the MSA population was 136,146.
History and name origin
Battle Creek was named for a skirmish between a federal government land survey party led by Colonel John Mullett and two Native Americans, likely Potawatomi people, who were historically prominent in this area since before European encounter.
According to various European-American accounts, while Mullett and his group were surveying an area several miles from the present city in the winter of 1823-1824, their camp was raided by Native Americans. Two members of the survey party who had remained at the camp were attacked by two Indians. The Indians were reported as trying to steal provisions from the survey team. They were likely hungry because annuities and supplies were late or insufficient; the Potawatomi had ceded their land to the United States by an 1820 treaty and been restricted to a reservation. The Army was notorious for failing to deliver supplies and annuities on a timely basis.
The current Amtrak station was built to replace two older train stations, the Battle Creek Grand Trunk Station and the Michigan Central Railroad Depot (also known as the Penn Central Railway Station). The Michigan Central Railroad depot has been on the National Register of Historic Places since April16, 1971, while the Grand Trunk Depot has been on the NRHP since 1980.
In September 2010, the state of Michigan got $3.6 million from the federal government to refurbish the station, including renovations to parts of the interior and exterior and bringing the station to ADA standards. On August 3, 2011, a temporary station operated out of a trailer to the northwest of the station building was planned to open while renovations took place for the next nine months.
It flows into the Milk River in Blaine County, Montana. Battle Creek and other tributaries of the Milk River in the southern portions of Alberta and Saskatchewan is one of two drainage areas of Canada where the water ultimately flows into the Gulf of Mexico, the other being the Poplar River drainage in Saskatchewan.
Battle Creek flows for 203km and has a drainage area of 2,600km².
Fort Walsh was established on the river on the Saskatchewan side of Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park.
Michigan is the only state to consist of two peninsulas. The Lower Peninsula, to which the name Michigan was originally applied, is often noted to be shaped like a mitten. The Upper Peninsula (often referred to as "the U.P.") is separated from the Lower Peninsula by the Straits of Mackinac, a five-mile (8km) channel that joins Lake Huron to Lake Michigan. The two peninsulas are connected by the Mackinac Bridge. The state has the longest freshwater coastline of any political subdivision in the world, being bounded by four of the five Great Lakes, plus Lake Saint Clair. As a result, it is one of the leading U.S. states for recreational boating. Michigan also has 64,980 inland lakes and ponds. A person in the state is never more than six miles (9.7km) from a natural water source or more than 85 miles (137km) from a Great Lakes shoreline.
Michigan: Report from Hell, released as Michigan in Japan, is a survival horror game developed by Grasshopper Manufacture and published by Spike. It was released in Japan on August 5, 2004, in Europe on September 30, 2005, and in Australia in 2005. This game was never released in North America. Directed by Akira Ueda and planned by Goichi Suda, the game focuses on a news crew for the fictional ZaKa TV, dedicated to covering strange phenomena. The game is unique in the sense that it is played almost entirely though the viewfinder of a camera; and the game is lost if the player runs out of film before solving the mysteries in a mission.
Plot
In Michigan, players take the role of a rookie cameraman for ZaKa TV, the entertainment division of the powerful ZaKa conglomerate. Accompanied by Brisco, an outspoken sound engineer, and Pamela, a reporter, the player is sent to investigate a mysterious mist that has descended over the city. The player quickly discovers that the mist is somehow transforming people into fleshy, leech-like monsters with human limbs. Pamela is attacked by the creatures, and is later found in the process of transforming into one. The player, Brisco, and a new female reporter are sent to investigate the source of the monster outbreak.
Driving Around Downtown Battle Creek, Michigan in 4k Video
Filmed on Monday, July 3 2023, I drive around Battle Creek, MI to see what's going on.
The naming of Battle Creek is a mystery. Some attribute the name to an encounter between two members of the Potawatomi and a federal government land survey party.
Another theory is attributed to a local river, which was known as Waupakiso by the local tribe, and the name was a reference to a battle between two indigenous tribes before the arrival of Europeans.
A post office was opened in Battle Creek in 1832. The first school was taught in a small log house about 1833 or 1834. A brick manufacturing plant, called the oldest enterprise in the township, was established in 1840 by Simon Carr and operated until 1903.

Touring the Historic Milton - Battle Creek, Michigan
The Milton is the new name for a historic tower in downtown Battle Creek, and it went through a restoration starting in 2018, which was completed in 2021. The mazzanine was brought back to its original glamor with gold leafing and tile work, making for a spectacular treasure for the city.
The building was originally built in 1931 by the Old Merchants National Bank & Trust Co. and it has gone through several different names changes over the years since. It is one of two towers built on Michigan Avenue in Battle Creek, and they remain a recognizable part of the skyline of downtown.
Join me as I take my first tour in over a decade in this marvelous building.

The Battle Creek Sanitarium was founded in the late 1800s by Dr. John Harvey Kellogg. In addition to some of his sometimes bizarre treatments that were featured in the movie "The Road to Wellville", Kellogg also funded organizations that promoted eugenics theories at the core of their philosophical agenda.
W. K. Kellogg had worked for his brother in a variety of capacities at the Battle Creek Sanitarium. Tired of living in the shadow of his brother John Harvey Kellogg, he struck out on his own, going to the boom-towns surrounding the oilfields in Oklahoma as a broom salesman. Having failed, he returned to work as an assistant to his brother.
While working at the sanitariums' laboratory, W.K. spilled liquefied cornmeal on a heating device that cooked the product and rendered it to flakes. He tasted the flakes and added milk to them. He was able to get his brother to allow him to give some of the product to some of the patients at the sanitarium, and the patients' demand for the product exceeded his expectations to the point that W.K made the decision to leave the sanitarium. Along with some investors, he built a factory to satisfy the demand for his "corn flakes".
Inspired by Kellogg's innovation, C. W. Post invented Grape-Nuts and founded his own cereal company in the town. Battle Creek has been nicknamed "the Cereal City."
Today, the Kellogg Company World Headquarters is still located in Battle Creek, employing 2,000 people.
In 1982, at the insistence of the Kellogg Company, the city annexed Battle Creek Township, nearly doubling the city's population. Kellogg's even went so far as to threaten to move their headquarters if the annexation failed to occur.
As of the census of 2020, there were 52,731 people residing in Battle Creek.
The city's racial makeup was 68.2% White, 17.3% Black or African American, .6% Native American, 3.7% Asian, 8.1% from two or more races, and 7.9% Hispanic or Latino of any race.
The median household income was $42,285, and the Per capita income was $25,270. 22.7% of the population was living below the poverty line.

Battle Creek is a city in the U.S. state of Michigan, in northwest Calhoun County, at the confluence of the Kalamazoo and Battle Creek rivers. It is the principal city of the Battle Creek, Michigan Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), which encompasses all of Calhoun County. As of the 2010 census, the city had a total population of 52,347, while the MSA population was 136,146.
History and name origin
Battle Creek was named for a skirmish between a federal government land survey party led by Colonel John Mullett and two Native Americans, likely Potawatomi people, who were historically prominent in this area since before European encounter.
According to various European-American accounts, while Mullett and his group were surveying an area several miles from the present city in the winter of 1823-1824, their camp was raided by Native Americans. Two members of the survey party who had remained at the camp were attacked by two Indians. The Indians were reported as trying to steal provisions from the survey team. They were likely hungry because annuities and supplies were late or insufficient; the Potawatomi had ceded their land to the United States by an 1820 treaty and been restricted to a reservation. The Army was notorious for failing to deliver supplies and annuities on a timely basis.
If I could get back to Battle Creek I'd leave this town just in a beat Get back to the city where my life was not in shit I'd visit the family who never cared If I'm alive or dead And tell them how happy I am without them Chorus: I'd ride my bike past the police station Sit by the river with a shitty ass grin If there's one thing I know about Battle Creek It's that once I'm there I ain't never gonna leave again It's a place where trees are not pre planned A place where my whole life began Never needed anybody else but me and the sky above Cereal city take me by the hand Take me back to when I was young And tell me all the things you know I wanna hear
