The U.S. state of Indiana is divided into ninety-two counties. The oldest and newest counties in Indiana are Knox County (created 1790) and Newton County (created 1857), respectively.

The average population of Indiana's ninety-two counties according to 2006 U. S. Census estimates, is 66,092, with Marion County as the most populous (860,454), and Ohio County (5,623) the least. The largest county is Allen (657 sq. mi., 1,702 km²) and the smallest is, again, Ohio (87 sq. mi., 225 km²). According to the Indiana Constitution, no county may be created of less than 400 square miles, nor may any county smaller than this be further reduced in size.
