As of the 2010 census, its population was 2,552 and it contained 657 housing units.[3] The population grew 30% since the 2000 census, when the population was 1,960. HistoryVan Buren Township was organized in September 1841; the last township to be formed in Daviess County, it was created in response to a petition circulated among residents of parts of Barr and Madison townships, praying to be set off as a separate township. In the first years of settlement, present-day Van Buren Township attracted few pioneers; most individuals in the area were trappers or hunters, and permanent settlement only began in the late 1820s.[4] GeographyAccording to the 2010 census, the township has a total area of {{convert|30.86|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|30.22|sqmi}} (or 97.93%) is land and {{convert|0.65|sqmi}} (or 2.11%) is water.[3] Unincorporated towns
