Michigan City is in LaPorte County, Indiana. It is one of the two principal cities of the Michigan City-La Porte, Indiana Metropolitan Statistical Area. Located in the region known to locals as Michiana, it is approximately 50 miles east of Chicago and 40 miles west of South Bend. The city had a population of 31,479 at the 2010 census.
Michigan City is noted for both its proximity to the Indiana Dunes National Park and for bordering Lake Michigan. Due to this, Michigan City is a tourism destination, especially during the summer, with a host of exciting events and activities, especially by residents of Chicago and of nearby cities in Northern Indiana. The lighthouse is a notable symbol for the city and is incorporated in the heading of Michigan City's sole newspaper, LaPorte County Herald-Dispatch, and the city's official seal. Michigan City hosted the sailing events at the 1987 Pan American Games.
