Hamilton is a Canadian port city in the province of Ontario. Hamilton has a population of 536,917 people, while the census metropolitan area that includes Burlington and Grimsby has a population of 767,000 people. The city is located in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, 58 kilometers (36 miles) southwest of Toronto (GTHA).
Prior to European arrival, the Neutral and Mississauga tribes lived on the territory on which Hamilton now lies. The town of Hamilton was conceived by George Hamilton when he acquired the Durand farm shortly after the War of 1812, and it became the center of the Golden Horseshoe, a highly inhabited and industrialized region near the west end of Lake Ontario. The present borders of Hamilton were established on January 1, 2001, following the merging of the original city with neighboring municipalities of the Regional Municipality of Hamilton–Wentworth. Hamiltonians are residents of the city.
Historically, the steel and heavy industrial sectors have driven the local economy. There has been a movement in the previous decade toward the service sector, such as health and sciences. The Royal Botanical Gardens, the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum, the Bruce Trail, McMaster University, Redeemer University College, and Mohawk College are all located in Hamilton. According to the Times Higher Education Rankings 2021, McMaster University is rated fourth in Canada and 69th in the world.
