About Township (township)
Definition
A township (survey) is a unit of land area equal to 36 square miles (93.24 km²), used in the US Public Land Survey System.
Mathematical Relationship
1 township = 36 sections = 36 mi² = 23,040 acres ≈ 93.24 km².
Conversion Formula
To convert townships to sections: multiply by 36. To acres: multiply by 23,040. To km²: multiply by 93.24.
Practical Applications

Interesting Facts
Indiana was the first state fully surveyed using the township system (1799–1834). The grid is still visible in satellite imagery.
Common Mistakes
Confusing 'township' (the survey unit = 36 mi²) with 'township' as a political subdivision, which can vary in size.
Educational Tips
A township = 6 mi × 6 mi = 36 sections. Each section = 1 mi² = 640 acres. It's a nested grid system.
