Between these two largest sections are hundreds of mostly small, non-contiguous reservation exclaves in the counties of Beltrami, Clearwater, Lake of the Woods, Koochiching, Roseau, Pennington, Marshall, Red Lake, and Polk. The second-largest section ( 49☁6′N 95☀3′W / 49.267°N 95.050°W / 49.267 -95.050) is much farther north, in the Northwest Angle of Lake of the Woods County near the Canada–United States border. The reservation population was 5,506 in the 2020 census. Land in seven other counties is also part of the reservation. This section lies primarily in the counties of Beltrami and Clearwater. It is made up of numerous holdings but the largest section is an area about Red Lake, in north-central Minnesota, the largest lake in the state. The Red Lake Indian Reservation (Ojibwe: Miskwaagamiiwi-zaaga'iganing) covers 1,260.3 sq mi (3,264 km 2 806,600 acres) in parts of nine counties in Minnesota, United States.
