Beach Ridges and Sand Deltas setting.
Greene township has 34.6 square miles of land in Ransom 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.

Greene and Ransom County
Greene is associated with Ransom 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.
Greene by land and water
The Census records 0.46 square miles of water within Greene, or 1.3% of its total area. It is 1.1 percentage points higher than the 0.2% recorded for Ransom County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Greene township has 84.6 times the land area of nearby Sheldon city (0.41 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
