Orrington was incorporated as a town in 1788 with its major village at Brewer, then called "New Worcester". Bangor incorporated three years later in 1791. Brewer broke away from Orrington in 1812 to form a separate town. The name "Orrington" reportedly resulted from a spelling mistake. The settlers intended to name it "Orangetown" after Orangetown, Maryland, but it was written on the record-books in distant Massachusetts, of which Maine was then a territory, as "Orrington". "Orring" was a reasonable phonetic rendering of "orange" before the standardization of English spelling.[4] GeographyAccording to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of {{convert|27.33|sqmi|sqkm|2}}, of which, {{convert|24.99|sqmi|sqkm|2}} of it is land and {{convert|2.34|sqmi|sqkm|2}} is water.[5] Demographics{{US Census population|1790= 477 |1800= 786 |1810= 1341 |1820= 1029 |1830= 1234 |1840= 1580 |1850= 1852 |1860= 1950 |1870= 1768 |1880= 1529 |1890= 1406 |1900= 1266 |1910= 1219 |1920= 1174 |1930= 1167 |1940= 1517 |1950= 1895 |1960= 2539 |1970= 2702 |1980= 3244 |1990= 3309 |2000= 3526 |2010= 3733 |estyear=2014 |estimate=3707 |estref=[6] |footnote=U.S. Decennial Census[7] }} 2010 censusAs of the census[8] of 2010, there were 3,733 people, 1,478 households, and 1,068 families residing in the town.
