The mile is the smplest and most relevant example, but any unit in the metric system larger than the kilometre includes the megametre (1000km) and the gigametre (1000 megametres). The parsec and the lightyear are probably extreme examples, but still valid.

Units of length that are longer than a kilometer include the mile, nautical mile, and league.
By unit of length and distance and conversion ,we can say that yes,there are units larger than a mile that is light year.
An acre is a area and a mile is a distance. If you walked the perimiter of an acre then you would have walked 8.25 miles.
The unit measure which is larger than miles is only 1 unit that is, the light years .
One unit of length that is longer than a meter is a kilometer, which is equal to 1000 meters.
1 kilometer is longer than 25 centimeters. 1 kilometer is equal to 100,000 centimeters, so it is significantly longer than 25 centimeters.
A mile is longer than a kilometer. One mile is approximately 1.609 kilometers.
1 kilometer is no where near 5 miles, its more like, just over half a mile 1 km = 0.66 mile in the real world, where one mile is significantly longer than a kilometer. In your hypothetical example, a kilometer would be longer.
A kilometer is a measure of length, a squared kilometer is a square representing the area of a kilometer squared. Each side is a kilometer in length. You cant really compare the two, length and area are two different types of measurement's I suppose based on the simplicity of the question, that a square kilometer is larger.
