Founded in 1785 by Irish merchant John O'Donnell, the area has transformed from its early days of industrial prominence to becoming one of Baltimore's trendiest neighborhoods. Its rich history includes being a hub for Welsh, Irish, German, Polish, and Ukrainian immigrants in the 19th century, each group contributing to the unique tapestry of Canton's culture.

Community and Growth

Today, Canton is synonymous with a family-friendly community, urban lifestyle, and a buzzing social scene. The neighborhood has experienced significant growth and gentrification since the late 1990s, making it a sought-after location for families and young professionals alike. Its inclusive environment and continuous development have helped Canton rank as one of the most gentrified zip codes in the nation.
