context_page_description: Walpack Township is a township in Sussex County, New Jersey, United States. As of the 2010 United States Census, the township had a population of 16, reflecting a decline of 25 from the 41 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn declined by 26 from the 67 counted in the 1990 Census. Walpack Township was one of only four municipalities in New Jersey with a double-digit population as of the 2010 Census, and it placed third behind Tavistock and Pine Valley, both in Camden County.
  The current Walpack Township is named from a corruption of the Lenape Native American content word "wahlpeck," which means "turn-hole," or an eddy or whirlpool, a compound of two Native American words, "woa-lac", and "tuppeck", though other sources attribute the name to mean "very deep water" or "sudden bend of a stream around the base of a rock".
  New Jersey Monthly magazine ranked Walpack Township as its 18th best place to live in its 2008 rankings of the "Best Places To Live" in New Jersey.
