They changed the name of where I live from the Woodlands, which is a suburb, to "The Woodlands Township", because a lot of upper-income snobs live here, and "township" sounds British. About 150,000 people, that is a pretty big town. Corsicana, Texas, with about 25,000, is a small town, but there are much smaller specks.
Of course, Chicago is my kind of town.

I have never heard of the word "township," so I'm guessing it's just not commonly used in the United States.
As for towns, they are small in comparison to cities.
If I were to chart it out from largest to smallest I would say: cities > towns > communities > neighborhoods
Sorry that doesn't actually answer your question...

In general, townships are smaller than towns, but this is a fairly rare term. I wouldn't worry about 'townships' if I were you.
