'''Triumph''' ({{lang-fr|Ville de Triomphe}}) is an [[Unincorporated area|unincorporated community]] and [[census-designated place]] in [[Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana|Plaquemines Parish]], [[Louisiana]], [[United States]]. It is located on the south bank of the [[Mississippi River]]. As of the [[20102020 United States Censuscensus|20102020 census]], its population was 216268.<ref name="GR8">{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov|publisher=[[United States Census Bureau]]|accessdate=2011-05-14|title=U.S. Census website}}</ref>
 
It is the closest town to two [[National Historic Landmarks]]: [[Fort Jackson (Louisiana)|Fort Jackson]] (down river from the town; though due to a bend in the river to the north east) and (across the river) [[Fort St. Philip]].
Line 84 ⟶ 88:
The 1960 U.S Census listed Triumph as having a population of 900. Until 2010, the Census did not count Triumph as a separate community, including it as part of the [[census-designated place]] (CDP) of [[Buras-Triumph, Louisiana|Buras-Triumph]].
 
According to tradition, the community was named for its "trimphtriumph" over a rival town when they secured a post office.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Moyer|first1=Armond|last2=Moyer|first2=Winifred|title=The origins of unusual place-names|url=https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=wu.89058322223;view=1up;seq=138|year=1958|publisher=Keystone Pub.

Like most of Plaquemines Parish, Triumph was severely damaged by the massive [[storm surge]] from [[Hurricane Katrina]] in 2005.
