Newberry (/ˈnuːbɛəri/ NOO-bair-ee) is a village and county seat of Luce County in the U.S. state of Michigan.[5] The village is located within McMillan Township and is the only incorporated community in Luce County. The population was 1,446 at the 2020 census.

Newberry is surrounded by state and national forests and is considered the southern gateway to the Tahquamenon Falls area, which the other being Paradise to the northeast. Newberry was designated as "the Moose Capital of Michigan" by the state legislature. The Newberry Correctional Facility is located just south of the village.

History

Newberry was founded in 1882 and became the county seat when Luce County was separated from Chippewa County in 1887. Its first courthouse was completed in 1890.[6]

The village was named in honor of John Stoughton Newberry, a U.S. Representative and industrialist from the state of Michigan.

Historic preservationists lost the 1970s fight to save the county's Victorian courthouse, but managed to keep the elaborate sheriff's house, now the Luce County Historical Museum.[citation needed]

Wildfires

The Newberry area was the location of two major wildfires. The Sleeper Lakes Fire took place in August 2007 and burned approximately 29 square miles (75.1 km2) just north of Newberry. In May 2012, the Duck Lake Fire burned approximately 34 square miles (88.1 km2) of forests near Tahquamenon Falls State Park to the northeast. Both wildfires were caused by lightning strikes. While the village itself was not threatened, firefighting efforts were coordinated in Newberry.

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 0.98 square miles (2.54 km2), all of it land.[7]

Climate

According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, Newberry has a humid continental climate, abbreviated "Dfb" on climate maps. A humid continental climate (Köppen prefix D and a third letter of a or b) is a climatic region defined by large seasonal temperature differences, with warm to hot (and often humid) summers and cold (sometimes severely cold in the northern areas) winters. Precipitation is usually distributed throughout the year. The definition of this climate regarding temperature is as follows: the mean temperature of the coldest month must be below −3 °C (26.6 °F) and there must be at least four months whose mean temperatures are at or above 10 °C (50 °F). In addition, the location in question must not be semi-arid or arid. The Dfb, Dwb and Dsb subtypes are also known as hemiboreal.[8]
