Overview
The FCC register lists 12 antenna structures in and around Munising, MI. That is the 86th highest count of any place in Michigan.
Counted against 1,938 residents, that is 619.2 per 100,000 — worth reading alongside area density, since structures cluster along roads and ridgelines rather than where people sleep.
Median height here is 98 m (320 ft), compared with 69 m (226 ft) across Michigan as a whole.
Lattice towers (3) and guyed masts (4) between them make up much of the register here — both are older, taller designs than the monopoles that dominate newer urban sites.
Registrations here span 1943 to 2020.

About this data
Source is the FCC Antenna Structure Registration file of 2026-08-23. What it records is structures, not the radios mounted on them: the register cannot tell you which carrier operates from a given site.
The FCC Antenna Structure Registration database covers structures that require registration — generally those over 200 feet or near airports. Many small cells, rooftop antennas and short towers are not registered and will not appear here.
"Owner" is the entity that registered the structure, usually a tower company such as American Tower or Crown Castle. It does not indicate which carriers operate equipment on the structure.
