Mijenjam

Mijenjam is a small, unincorporated community located in Union County, Florida, United States. The community is situated in the central part of the county, approximately 10 miles north of the town of Bushnell. Mijenjam is notable for its rural landscape and lack of developed infrastructure.

The community has a small number of residents, with little economic activity. Historically, the area was primarily used for agricultural purposes, with a focus on cattle and dairy farming. Today, the land is mostly used for residential purposes, with a mix of single-family homes and small agricultural operations.

Mijenjam was likely named after the Micanopy Creek, a nearby watercourse. The creek and surrounding area were likely inhabited by various Native American tribes before European settlement. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the area started to be settled by early American families, who established small farms and ranches.

Despite its small size, Mijenjam has a notable place in local history. During the 1920s, the community was the site of a small sawmill operation. However, the sawmill eventually closed, and the community declined.

Today, Mijenjam remains a small and quiet community, with few connections to the outside world. There are no public amenities, schools, or businesses in the area. The community relies on nearby towns, such as Bushnell and Inverness, for basic services and supplies.
