Irregular galaxies exhibit the largest range in both size and mass among galaxy types. They can vary significantly, from small dwarf irregular galaxies, which can be just a few hundred light-years across and contain only millions of stars, to massive irregulars that can rival or exceed the size and mass of large spiral galaxies. This diversity arises from their chaotic formation processes and lack of a defined structure, allowing for a wide spectrum of characteristics.

What is the largest galaxy in the local Milky Way?

The ONLY galaxy in the "local milky way" is the Milky Way itself. If you're asking what the largest galaxy in the local group is, the Andromeda Galaxy is the largest by size but the Milky Way may be slightly larger by mass. It's definitely one of those two by any reasonable criterion, though.

Where are galaxy mass black holes found in?

There is no such thing as a black hole with the mass of a galaxy. At least, none that we know of, and not if you are thinking of a large galaxy like the Milky Way. The largest known black hole has about 20 billion solar masses - which is still much less than the mass of a typical galaxy. For example, our Milky Way is estimated to have a mass of about 700 billion solar masses. However, such as massive black hole does have a mass comparable to smaller galaxies, i.e., dwarf galaxies. In any case, such huge black holes are found in the center of large galaxies.
