Benton Harbor

Benton Harbor is in Berrien County, and in the West-Southwest Region. Benton Harbor is located west of Kalamazoo between Holland and the Indiana state line along Highway 63 on the banks of the St Joseph River, near Paw Paw Lake. Situated on the shoreline of Lake Michigan.

Benton Harbor is part of the Benton Harbor, Michigan metro area.

The history of Benton Harbor started with the purchase of 160 acres of land by Eleazar Morton in a portion of Benton Township. In 1836 he re-located his family into a log cabin on high ground west of Ox Creek -- a site located in the middle of present-day Main Street, a distance of one block east of the historical Liberty Theater.
