The Red Lake Indian Reservation covers 3,259.81 km² (1,258.62 sq mi)) in parts of nine counties in northern Minnesota, USA. It is divided into many pieces, although the largest section is centered about Red Lake, in north-central Minnesota, the largest lake entirely within that state. This section lies primarily in the counties of Beltrami and Clearwater. Seven other counties also have land that is part of the reservation. The second-largest section is much farther north in the Northwest Angle of Lake of the Woods County, near the Canadian border. Between these two largest sections are literally hundreds of mostly tiny non-contiguous exclaves of the reservation in Beltrami, Clearwater, Koochiching, Lake of the Woods, Marshall, Pennington, Polk, Red Lake, and Roseau Counties. It is home to the Red Lake Band of Chippewa, and is the most populous reservation in the state according to the 2000 census, which recorded 5,162 residents. The only place in Minnesota with a higher Native American population is the state's largest city, Minneapolis, which recorded 8,378 Indian residents that year. The reservation's largest community is Red Lake, on the south shore of Red Lake. With the large lake in the heart of the reservation's territory, its total land area, 2,280.029 km², is only about 70 percent of the reservation's surface area.
