What is Square mile?
A '''square mile''' (sometimes written ''mi²'' ) is a British and [[United States|American]] [[U.S. customary units|unit of measurement]] of [[area]]. It is the area inside a [[square (geometry)|square]] that has each side equal to one statute [[mile]] (5,280 [[Foot_(unit_of_length)|feet]] or 1,760 [[US yard|yards]]). This way of talking about area is often used to say how much land there is on a [[farm]], or in a [[city]] or [[country]], for example. One square mile is just less than 2.6 [[square kilometre]]s.
