Lebanon Township is the northernmost township in Hunterdon County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the township's population was 6,195,[8][9] a decrease of 393 (−6.0%) from the 2010 census count of 6,588,[17][18] which in turn reflected an increase of 772 (+13.3%) from the 5,816 counted in the 2000 census.[19]
Located within the Raritan Valley region, the township is situated in the northernmost part of Hunterdon County bordering both Morris and Warren counties. When Lebanon Township was created in 1731, its original borders extended from the Musconetcong River to Readington Township.[20]
