About Townships

A township (twp) is a large survey unit used in the US Public Land Survey System, defined as a square with sides of 6 statute miles, giving exactly 36 square miles or approximately 93,240,000 m². Each township is subdivided into 36 one-square-mile sections of 640 acres each. The Township and Range system is how most US land west of Ohio was divided and sold; township numbers and names still appear in legal land descriptions, county records, and geographic placenames across the American Midwest and West.

About Marlas

A marla is a traditional unit of land area used in Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh, equal to 30.25 square yards (approximately 25.29 m²) - effectively the same as one square rod. In Pakistan's land registry system, 20 marlas equal one kanal and 8 kanals equal one acre. Despite metrification, marla remains the dominant unit for measuring residential plots and urban land in Pakistan. Property listings in Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad routinely quote plot sizes in marlas, making it essential knowledge for anyone dealing with South Asian real estate.
