THE OHIO LAND BRIEF
Land in the
Southern Missouri Coteau setting.
Ohio township has 36 square miles of land in Hand County. Its Census reference point is in Southern Missouri Coteau, within Northwestern Glaciated Plains.
Glaciated plains bridge the wetter eastern prairie and the drier, more broken Great Plains. Numerous prairie potholes and other seasonal or persistent wetlands are characteristic regional landforms.

Ohio and Hand County
Ohio is associated with Hand 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.
Ohio by land and water
The Census records 0.02 square miles of water within Ohio, or 0.1% of its total area. It is 0.2 percentage points lower than the 0.2% recorded for Hand County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Ohio township has 1 times the land area of nearby Pleasant Valley township (35.6 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
