Lake of the Woods County
Minnesota
Lake of the Woods County
is a
county located in the
U.S. state of
Minnesota. As of
2000, the population is 4,522. Its
county seat is
Baudette6.
The county contains the
Northwest Angle, the northernmost point of
the
Lower 48 States, and includes the U.S.
portion of
Lake of the Woods, shared with
Canada. Since Alaska has no counties (its
territory is comprised entirely of boroughs,
census areas, and a municipality), Lake of the
Woods is the northernmost county in the United
States, by definition.
According to the
U.S. Census Bureau, the
county has a total area of 4,597
km² (1,775
mi²). 3,358 km² (1,297 mi²)
of it is land and 1,239 km² (478
mi²) of it (26.95%) is water.
