As of the 2010 United States Census, the township's population was 46,207,〔〔〔 reflecting an increase of 1,264 (+2.8%) from the 44,943 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 5,840 (+14.9%) from the 39,103 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 July 12, 2012.〕 ==History== West Orange was initially a part of the city of Newark, and remained so until November 27, 1806, when the territory now encompassing all of The Oranges was detached to form Orange Township.〔Snyder, John P. (''The Story of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries: 1606-1968'' ), Bureau of Geology and Topography; Trenton, New Jersey; 1969. p. 133. Accessed May 23, 2012.〕 On April 13, 1807, the first government was elected. On January 31, 1860, Orange was incorporated as a town, and on April 3, 1872, it was reincorporated as a city.〔 Almost immediately, Orange began fragmenting into smaller communities, primarily because of local disputes about the costs of establishing paid police, fire and street departments. South Orange was organized on April 1, 1861, Fairmount (an independent municipality for less than one year that was later to become part of West Orange) on March 11, 1862, and East Orange on March 4, 1863.〔 West Orange (including what had been the briefly independent municipality of Fairmount) was incorporated as a township on April 10, 1863, and was reformed as a town on February 28, 1900.〔〔Honeyman, Abraham Van Doren. (''Index-analysis of the Statutes of New Jersey, 1896-1909: Together with References to All Acts, and Parts of Acts, in the 'General Statutes' and Pamphlet Laws Expressly Repealed: and the Statutory Crimes of New Jersey During the Same Period'' ), p. 314. New Jersey Law Journal Publishing Company, 1910. Accessed October 25, 2015.〕 In 1980, West Orange again became a township to take advantage of federal revenue sharing policies that allocated a greater share of government aid to municipalities classified as townships.〔("Chapter VI: Municipal Names and Municipal Classification" ), p. 73. New Jersey State Commission on County and Municipal Government, 1992. Accessed September 24, 2015.〕〔("Removing Tiering From The Revenue Sharing Formula Would Eliminate Payment Inequities To Local Governments" ), Government Accountability Office, April 15, 1982. Accessed September 24, 2015. "On November 4, 1980, the communities of West Orange and Montclair voted a change to their township classification beginning in entitlement period 13 (Oct. 1, 1981, to Sept. 30, 1982). The communities of Belleville, Bloomfield, Nutley, Essex Fells, Verona, Caldwell, and West Caldwell have since become townships."〕〔Narvaez, Alfonso A. ("New Jersey Journal" ), ''The New York Times'', December 27, 1981. Accessed September 24, 2015. "Under the Federal system, New Jersey's portion of the revenuesharing funds is disbursed among the 21 counties to create three 'money pools.' One is for county governments, one for 'places' and a third for townships. By making the change, a community can use the ''township advantage'' to get away from the category containing areas with low per capita incomes."〕 The township derives its name from the city of Orange, which in turn is derived from William III of England〔Hutchinson, Viola L. (''The Origin of New Jersey Place Names'' ), New Jersey Public Library Commission, May 1945. Accessed September 16, 2015.〕 or William IV, Prince of Orange.〔Gannett, Henry. (''The Origin of Certain Place Names in the United States'' ), p. 23. United States Government Printing Office, 1905. Accessed September 16, 2015.〕 Llewellyn Park, the first planned community in America, is located within West Orange, and was designed by entrepreneur Llewellyn Haskell and architect Alexander Jackson Davis in 1857.〔(LP Historical Society and Archives ), Llewellyn Park. Accessed September 10, 2007.〕 Llewellyn Park is considered among the best examples of the "Romantic Landscape" movement of that period.〔Jackson, John Brinckerhoff; and Horowitz, Helen Lefkowitz. (''Landscape in Sight: Looking at America'' ), p. 180. Yale University Press, 2000. ISBN 0-300-08074-3. Accessed July 11, 2011.〕 Thomas Edison was one of the many residents.〔Rand, Ellen.
