History

Located in the Regional Municipality of York, known as “North Toronto” and Canada’s 17
th largest city. With a booming population of 300,000 plus, Vaughan has become one of the fastest growing cities. Vaughan is a part of the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). With the first European settler in 1615, the Vaughan townships were officially created in 1792. The township of Vaughan was named after Benjamin Vaughan after the peace treaty with the United States came into law in 1783. Due to Vaughan’s distance from the urban center, the area was more of a remote suburban region without any usable roads. The City of Vaughan was recognized in 1991. The township’s first settlers were mostly agricultural farmers that gradually became skilled tradespeople. After the establishment of Vaughan, the population’s continue growth created the foundation for communities within the region including Thornhill, Maple, Woodbridge, Concord and Kleinburg. Later in the years, the cities surrounding Vaughan have also become a staple in the GTA such as Richmond Hill and New Market.
