Bloomingdale
is a quiet, rural community situated in northeastern Van Buren County, which is located in the southwestern portion of the state. The town was settled in 1850 by two Ohio natives who chose the name because of its' location within a beautiful "blooming valley." The picturesque village of Bloomingdale includes a city park that serves as the town's "downtown square," with the square being surrounded by a variety of shops and businesses. Railroad buffs enjoy visiting Bloomingdale's well-preserved depot, complete with a restored semaphore and an old red caboose. For outdoor recreation, Bloomingdale is situated on the Kal-Haven Trail, which is a paved hiking trail that stretches from Kalamazoo to South Haven and is part of Michigan's Rails-to-Trails State Park System. Other activities located nearby include swimming, boating, fishing, sailing, biking and golf. Bloomingdale is approximately 25 miles northwest of the town of Paw Paw and near Kalamazoo and Benton Harbor. The Paw Paw River, 3 Mile and Paw Paw Lakes are also nearby.

Bloomingdale Weather & Climate
|
|
|
|
Southwest Michigan has a distinct four-season climate that is typical of most of the Midwest, except that it experiences some lake effect conditions due to the close proximity of Lake Michigan. Summer precipitation comes in the form of showers and thunderstorms. Lake Michigan acts as a giant "heat sink," which helps moderate the temperatures of the surrounding land, cooling summers and warming winters. It is also a natural humidifier, and this causes an increase in the moisture content in the air, creating heavier snowfalls in the winter. However, seldom are there prolonged periods of extreme heat combined with humidity in southwestern Michigan. Average annual snowfall is 36 inches, but varies greatly from year to year. Michigan is on the fringe of the Midwest tornado belt, but sees less of this activity than other parts of the country.
