It is included here because the U.S. Census Bureau splits Braham’s population between both counties.<\/p>\n Townships<\/h2>\nKanabec County’s unincorporated land is organized into 15 civil townships, each with its own township board. Verified 2020 per-township population counts were not available for this profile, so the table lists names and known principal settlements only.<\/p>\n \n |
