Holmes and Menominee County
Holmes is associated with Menominee 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.
Holmes by land and water
The Census records 1.07 square miles of water within Holmes, or 1.5% of its total area. It is 20.5 percentage points lower than the 22% recorded for Menominee County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Holmes township has 63.7 times the land area of nearby Daggett village (1.12 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
