As of the 2010 United States Census, the township's population was 6,319,〔〔〔 reflecting an increase of 286 (+4.7%) from the 6,033 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 595 (+10.9%) from the 5,438 counted in the 1990 Census.〔(Table 7. Population for the Counties and Municipalities in New Jersey: 1990, 2000 and 2010 ), New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development, February 2011. Accessed February 18, 2013.〕 Andover was incorporated as a township by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on April 11, 1864, from portions of Newton Township, which was split up on that date and dissolved. Portions of the township were taken to form Fredon Township (February 24, 1904) and Andover borough (March 25, 1904). Portions of the township were ceded to Newton town in both 1869 and 1927.〔Snyder, John P. (''The Story of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries: 1606-1968'' ), Bureau of Geology and Topography; Trenton, New Jersey; 1969. p. 230. Accessed October 25, 2012.〕 The township was suggestively named after the existing village of Andover, whose name origin is not certain,〔Snell, James P. (1881) ''History of Sussex and Warren Counties, New Jersey, With Illustrations and Biographical Sketches of its Prominent Men and Pioneers''. (Centennial ed., Harmony, NJ: Harmony Press, 1981) p. 445.〕 though sources indicate that the name comes from Andover, Hampshire, England.〔Hutchinson, Viola L. (''The Origin of New Jersey Place Names'' ), New Jersey Public Library Commission, May 1945. Accessed August 26, 2015.〕 In the years before World War II, Andover Township was home to Camp Nordland, a retreat and gathering place covering owned and operated by the German American Bund, an American Nazi organization devoted to promoting a favorable view of Nazi Germany. Camp Nordland was shut down by the federal government after Germany declared war on the United States and sold at auction in 1944.〔Staff. ("'CAMP NORDLAND' SOLD; Bund's N.J. Training Center Is Bought by Real Estate Man" ), ''The New York Times'', June 12, 1944. Accessed August 23, 2013.〕 The property eventually was acquired by Andover Township and is now called Hillside Park with a recreational hall and sports fields. ==Geography== According to the United States Census Bureau, the township had a total area of 20.687 square miles (53.580 km2), including 19.956 square miles (51.686 km2) of land and 0.731 square miles (1.894 km2) of water (3.53%).〔〔 Unincorporated communities, localities and place names located partially or completely within the township include Brighton, County Road Camp, Davis Pond, Drakes Pond, Garders Lake, Iliffs Lake, Lake Aeroflex, Lake Iliff, Lake Lenape, Long Pond, Mulford, New Waywayanda Lake, Pinkneyville, Redings Pond, Springdale, Stickle Pond, Sussex Mills, Whitehall and Whites Pond.〔(Locality Search ), State of New Jersey.
