What is a township?
A township is a unit from the American Public Land Survey: a square six miles on each side, covering 36 square miles — about 93.2 square kilometers.
Each township was divided into 36 sections of one square mile each, and this grid still shapes farm boundaries and road layouts across the Midwest and West.
