About Hamilton
The area
The City of Hamilton sits at the western end of Lake Ontario and had about 569,400 people in 2021 on about 1,118 km² of land. Most live in the lower city and on the Niagara Escarpment above it, known locally as the Mountain. Around that core lie farms, woodlots, wetlands and quarries, with 19 rural settlement areas such as Carlisle, Freelton, Greensville and Lynden. Today's city dates from 2001, when Hamilton merged with Ancaster, Dundas, Flamborough, Glanbrook and Stoney Creek.
History
The city recognizes the Erie, Neutral, Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee and Mississaugas as the peoples of this land, which falls under the Dish With One Spoon covenant and the 1792 Between the Lakes Purchase with the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. Loyalists arrived from 1778, and George Hamilton laid out the town in 1815. The Burlington Canal opened the harbour to Lake Ontario in 1830, and the port, railways and Canada's largest steel industry built the city.
Services and access
Hamilton General Hospital is the adult regional trauma centre. Juravinski Hospital also has an adult emergency department, McMaster Children's Hospital treats children, and St. Joseph's Healthcare runs a 24-hour emergency department for all ages at its Charlton Campus; all are in the urban area. Highway 403 and the QEW are the provincial freeways, linked across the Mountain by the Lincoln Alexander Parkway. John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport, on Highway 6 at Mount Hope, has scheduled flights. Hamilton Health Sciences is the area's largest employer.
Land and climate
Some farmland is designated Specialty Crop to protect the tender fruit and grape lands named in the Greenbelt Plan. Conservation areas such as Dundas Valley and Spencer Gorge protect valleys and waterfalls. Rural development relies on a private well and septic system, which the owner maintains. The city runs communal water systems in four settlements, including Freelton, Carlisle and Lynden, where private supplies had failed.
Before you buy
The City of Hamilton issues building permits and sets rural zoning through the Rural Hamilton Official Plan and Zoning By-law 05-200. The plan keeps prime and specialty crop land in farming, freezes settlement boundaries, and requires new lots on private services to be at least 0.4 ha, sometimes with a hydrogeological study. Near quarries, where dewatering can leave a well short, it allows a cistern. Here the Greenbelt covers the Niagara Escarpment Plan area and the Protected Countryside. In the escarpment's area of development control, many projects need a Niagara Escarpment Commission development permit; check its map and staff before closing. Four conservation authorities (Hamilton, Niagara Peninsula, Grand River and Halton) each require permits for work on or near watercourses, floodplains, wetlands and steep slopes.
