Селище Васильківка на річці Вовча розташоване в 80 кілометрах на схід від Дніпра, осторонь від основних автомагістралей.

Виникло в 1707 році як зимівник одного з козацьких старшин поблизу урочища Васильків. Після ліквідації Запорозької Січі в 1775 році зимівник отримав статус військової слободи. Згодом слобода стала центром волості. Основними заняттями жителів були землеробство та тваринництво, також розвивалися ремесла.

В 1897 році заснована Миколаївська церква (зруйнована в радянські часи, зараз відновлена в новому вигляді). В кінці XIX - на початку XX століття у Васильківці щорічно влаштовувалися три ярмарки, були дві церкви і три парові млини.

Статус селища міського типу з 1957 року.
