Livingston County is a county located in the U.S. state of Michigan. As of the 2010 census, the population was 180,967. It is included in the Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI Metropolitan Statistical Area.

The county seat and most populous city is Howell. The county was platted in 1833, but for three years remained a part of Shiawassee and Washtenaw counties. It was formally organized in 1836. As one of Michigan's "Cabinet counties", a group of counties whose names honor members of President Andrew Jackson's Cabinet, it is named after former U.S. Secretary of State Edward Livingston.

Livingston County's location in Southeast Michigan offers its residents relatively convenient access to the major metropolitan centers of Detroit, Lansing, Ann Arbor, and Flint. People from Livingston County commute to all four of these cities, using the three major expressways which pass through the county: I-96, US 23, and M-59.

Although continuing to be composed largely of bedroom communities, the county is experiencing and maintaining significant growth in both the service and industrial economic sectors. Major employers include Pepsico, Citizens Insurance and Ogihara Industries. The Brighton Recreation Area is located in the county.

It publishes every Tuesday, covering Pinckney, Fowlerville and the Howell areas. It is edited by veteran county journalist Stephenie Koehn. The Journal is published along with the Fowlerville News and Views, which has been published for 25 years by Horton and his wife Dawn.

Government

The county government operates the jail and Sheriff's Department, maintains rural roads, operates the major local courts, keeps files of deeds and mortgages, maintains vital records, administers public health regulations, and participates with the state in the provision of welfare and other social services. The All Republican county board of commissioners controls the budget, but has only limited authority to make laws or ordinances. In Michigan, most local government functions -- police and fire, building and zoning, tax assessment, street maintenance, etc. -- are the responsibility of individual cities and townships.
