Battle Creek
There is new energy in Battle Creek, Michigan, and positive momentum in areas including in primary and higher education, in business and workforce development, growth downtown, new art and entertainment offerings, and increased community investment. The people of Battle Creek are witnessing and feeling the impact of these beneficial changes. To capitalize on the recent activity and growth, a new community-driven narrative and visual campaign was created to represent the unique and inspirational spirit of our Battle Creek: Our City. Your Home.
The messaging, artwork and assets created as a result of this collaborative community exercise were purposefully designed to evolve, adapt and extend to your own project needs, and are available for use by all community members, organizations, and businesses to celebrate what makes Battle Creek special. This open concept visual system means that the core concept is open to your artistic interpretation and can be evolved to fit your needs.
Thank you for your dedication and contributions to our city, your home!

In other cities, neighbors may remain strangers for years and people may pass each other by without even exchanging a glance. But in Battle Creek, we value being part of a community.
While expanding with exciting opportunities, our Midwestern city has a close-knit, small-town feeling that just makes it a nice place to live. It’s big enough to offer all the amenities of a bustling city, yet small enough to make an individual feel connected.
Battle Creek is known for welcoming different people and ideas and rewarding ingenuity and hard work. These values can be seen in action in our public schools and in Kellogg Community College— ranked No. 1 in Michigan. They also extend across Battle Creek’s business community and workforce, where there’s a sense that what you contribute matters and where there’s a place for all experience levels, skill sets, backgrounds, and beliefs. Here, efforts made by committed individuals can be felt by all.
And when it’s time to relax and have fun, Battle Creek can’t be beat. Whether you’re a resident or a visitor, there’s always something to do, from big-name concerts and art events, popular festivals and farmers’ markets, and a wide variety of independent restaurants and national chains, to much-loved museums, picturesque parks, one of Michigan’s largest zoos, a 72-acre arboretum, 11 golf courses— even a mid-town lake and a 26-mile trail system for hiking and biking.
Battle Creek is a city that values its history, and though there have been some challenges along the way, you’ll find all sorts of good people working together to make a bright future. Our city is geographically well-positioned, beautiful, and easy going with a great quality of life. Large enough to be diverse, vibrant, and resourcerich, yet small enough that you can easily get to know a lot of people on a first-name basis.
We love Battle Creek and think you will too. Connect with us and experience for yourself why our city can be your home.
