Garfield and Mackinac County
Garfield is associated with Mackinac County in the Census boundary data. Start with the parcel’s tax bill to match the property to that jurisdiction, then confirm which government handles its land use.
Garfield by land and water
The Census records 3.05 square miles of water within Garfield, or 2.2% of its total area. It is 49.1 percentage points lower than the 51.4% recorded for Mackinac County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Garfield township has 326.5 times the land area of nearby Naubinway CDP (0.41 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
