Cannon township has 35.7 square miles of land in Kittson County. Its Census reference point is in Beach Ridges and Sand Deltas, within Lake Agassiz Plain.
The former bed of glacial Lake Agassiz forms an exceptionally flat plain in the Red River valley. Thick lake sediments overlie older glacial deposits across this historic prairie landscape.

Cannon and Kittson County
Cannon is associated with Kittson 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.
Cannon by land and water
The Census records 0.03 square miles of water within Cannon, or 0.1% of its total area. It is 0.3 percentage points lower than the 0.4% recorded for Kittson County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Cannon township has 1 times the land area of nearby Percy township (34.8 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
