It is the center of a small, contiguous urban area totaling over 120,000 residents, with waite park, sauk rapids, sartell, st. Joseph, rockville, and st.

St. Cloud owns and operates a hydroelectric dam on the mississippi that can produce up to ten megawatts of electricity. According to the united states census bureau, the city has a total area of 41.08 square miles; 40.04 square miles is land and 1.04 square miles is water. The city is bisected by the mississippi river, and part of the sauk river runs along its northern edge. Just south of downtown, near technical high school, is the 7-acre, 35-feet-deep lake george.
