Urban land usage accounts for around 4% of total land use.
The majority of Clare County’s public lands are located in the north and west. Approximately one-fourth of the county (23%) is publicly owned and is primarily forested. On state lands, the primary forest species are mixed upland aspen, oak, and jack pine. Jack pine accounts for 20% of the forest cover. Clare County has less aspen than Gladwin County, but oak and jack pine offset for early successional aspen and maintain the current dispersion and quantity of deer.
Clare County’s deer population has been stable during the last five years. Although the number of crop damage reports has not changed significantly, there has been a large increase in the number of Out of Season Kill Tags sought by individual farmers.
