Woodland Township is a township in Burlington County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the township's population was 1,544,[8] a decrease of 244 (−13.6%) from the 2010 census count of 1,788,[16][17] which in turn reflected an increase of 618 (+52.8%) from the 1,170 counted in the 2000 census.[18] The township, and all of Burlington County, is a part of the Philadelphia-Reading-Camden combined statistical area and the Delaware Valley.[19]

Woodland was incorporated as a township by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 7, 1866, from portions of Pemberton Township, Shamong Township, Southampton Township and Washington Township. Portions of the township were taken to form Tabernacle Township on March 22, 1901.[20]
