THE CLARK LAND BRIEF
Land in the
Southern Missouri Coteau setting.
Clark township has 27.7 square miles of land in Douglas County. Its Census reference point is in Southern Missouri Coteau, within Northwestern Glaciated Plains.

Clark and Douglas County
Clark is associated with Douglas 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.
Clark by land and water
The Census records 0.24 square miles of water within Clark, or 0.9% of its total area. It is 0.4 percentage points higher than the 0.4% recorded for Douglas County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Clark township has 239.1 times the land area of nearby New Holland CDP (0.12 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
