Big Rapids Township is a charter township[4] of Mecosta County in the U.S. state of Michigan. As of the 2020 census, the township population was 3,917.[2]
The city of Big Rapids is surrounded by the charter township but, like all cities in Michigan, is a completely separate jurisdiction from any townships adjacent to it. But whereas cities, as municipal corporations, can cross county lines, civil and charter townships, as administrative divisions of a county, cannot.
