European settlement began when Josue L'Amoreaux arrived via New York City with wife Elizabeth, seven children and two nephews in 1816.
The family spread throughout the Greater Toronto Area and eventually many later relatives returned to the United States.
The area has developed into a suburban residential neighbourhood predominantly of single-family detached homes and townhomes, dating from the late 1950s, as well as some mid to high-rise apartment buildings and condominiums.
The population of L'Amoreaux primarily made up of immigrants (68%), with the main countries of origin being China, Sri Lanka, and Philippines.
[1] In regards to ethnocultural diversity, Chinese, East Indian, and Canadian are reported as the three largest population groups.
