Niagara Falls Real Estate & Homes for Sale


Niagara Falls is a city in Ontario situated on the western bank of the Niagara River in the Golden Horseshoe region of Southern Ontario. The city is built along Niagara Falls waterfalls and the Niagara Gorge. The waterfalls are the major attraction for the tourists who visit the city, especially for witnessing the spectacular view of the water plummeting down the height. The city of Niagara Falls covers an approximate area of 209.7 km², with a population density per square kilometre of 419.9. It is part of the St. Catharines - Niagara Census Metropolitan Area (CMA). The city is connected to the U.S. side of the falls by several bridges, including the Rainbow, Whirlpool, and Queenston-Lewiston bridges.

The present-day City of Niagara Falls is located on land originally known as Township Number 2, the second Township surveyed after the Township of Niagara. It was also known as Mount Dorchester, named for Governor-General Sir Guy Carleton, Earl of Dorchester. The earliest settlers in Township Number 2 were Philip Bender and Thomas McMicken (or McMicking), United Empire Loyalists who, along with their families, immigrated to Canada from the United States in 1782; by the census of 1783, ten families were living in Township Number 2. The population snowballed until all 22,881 acres of land in the Township were claimed by United Empire Loyalists or members of Butler's Rangers. In 1791, John Graves Simcoe, the first Lieutenant-Governor of the Province of Upper Canada, gave the name of Stamford to Township Number 2, after the Town of Stamford in Lincolnshire, England. As more people settled in the area, they began to concentrate on tiny communities. The City of Niagara Falls is an amalgamation of those early communities which developed in Stamford Township.
