Michigan Valley is a small, unincorporated community located in Osage County, Kansas, in the United States. An "unincorporated community" means it's a place where people live, but it doesn't have its own local government like a city or town. It is situated just a couple of miles east of Pomona Lake, a popular spot in the area.
A Look Back in Time
Michigan Valley has a history that goes back many years. An important part of its past is when a post office was opened there in 1870. A post office is where people send and receive letters and packages. This post office served the community for a long time, helping people stay connected. It finally closed its doors in 1967.
