Florence County is a small county situated in the great state of Wisconsin, USA. Established on December 21, 1882, the county was named in honor of Florence Hulst, the first white woman to settle in the region. Florence County is part of the Iron Mountain Micropolitan Statistical Area and is known for its rich history linked with the logging and mining industries.
Originally inhabited by Native American tribes, the area witnessed an influx of European settlers in the 1800s. The Menominee Iron Range, which runs through the county, became a significant iron mining hub during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The logging industry took over when mining activities started to decline, substantially contributing to the local economy.
