'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a skill which tasks the player with running a town inside the land of Melvor. Similar to {{Skill|Farming}}, it can be trained passively. However, unlike {{Skill|Farming|nolink=true}}, {{Skill|Township|nolink=true}} has no {{Icon|Mastery}} levels, and uses a unique ''tick'' system of progression. Each hour, the town will advance by one tick, during each tick [[#Resources|Resources]] and {{GP}} will be gained, which may then be reinvested into the town or converted into a number of [[Consumables]] and other resources for use in other skills.

Over time, both the [[#Health|Health]] of the town's [[#Population|Population]] and efficiency of [[#Buildings|Buildings]] will deteriorate, with buildings requiring [[#Repairing Buildings|Repair]] in order to remain fully productive.

The population of a town can be increased by constructing more {{TownshipIcon|Basic Shelter|Basic Shelters}} or upgrades to that building which provide population. The population is also affected by [[#Happiness|Happiness]], as the town's population is increased by the current happiness percentage, and [[#Health|Health]], where for each 1% reduction in health the town's population is also decreased by 1%.
