The township was established (circa) 1917 by the Matarawa Land Company as a potential farming area; a few families had already settled in the area after 1910, and a school with 9 pupils was founded in 1915 (later to become Tokoroa East School).<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The land was found to be too poor for raising cattle or sheep due to its predominant pumice soils.

As the initial crops matured, Tokoroa was then developed as a residential satellite for <a href="/wiki/Kinleith_Mill" title="Kinleith Mill">Kinleith Mill</a> workers (New Zealand Forest Products Limited's integrated timber, pulp and paper mill), approximately 8 km south of the township. In 1948, Tokoroa had a population of 1,100. By the early 1970s, however, Tokoroa reached, for a time, a population of over 20,000 – the number necessary to be officially deemed a city. In the 1980s years NZFP (and later, mill-owner <a href="/wiki/Carter_Holt_Harvey" title="Carter Holt Harvey">Carter Holt Harvey</a> Ltd) began to downscale and restructure operations at Kinleith. Since the late 1980s this ongoing downscaling at Kinleith – and closing of other local industries – resulted in a marked drop in population. Census figures put the 2018 population at approximately 14,300.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Marae">Marae</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Tokoroa&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Marae"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Tokoroa has two <a href="/wiki/Marae" title="Marae">marae</a> connected to local <a href="/wiki/Iwi" title="Iwi">iwi</a> and <a href="/wiki/Hap%C5%AB" title="Hapū">hapū</a>: </p> <ul><li>Ngātira Marae and Te Tikanga a Tāwhiao meeting house are associated with the <a href="/wiki/Ng%C4%81ti_Raukawa" title="Ngāti Raukawa">Ngāti Raukawa</a> hapū of <a href="/wiki/Ng%C4%81ti_Ahuru" class="mw-redirect" title="Ngāti Ahuru">Ngāti Ahuru</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Waikato_Tainui" title="Waikato Tainui">Waikato Tainui</a> hapū of <a href="/wiki/Ng%C4%81ti_Korok%C4%AB_(Waikato_Tainui)" class="mw-redirect" title="Ngāti Korokī (Waikato Tainui)">Ngāti Korokī</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ng%C4%81ti_Raukawa_ki_Paneh%C4%81kua" class="mw-redirect" title="Ngāti Raukawa ki Panehākua">Ngāti Raukawa ki Panehākua</a>.</li> <li>Ōngāroto Marae and Whaita meeting house are affiliated with the <a href="/wiki/Ng%C4%81ti_Raukawa" title="Ngāti Raukawa">Ngāti Raukawa</a> hapū of <a href="/wiki/Ng%C4%81ti_Whaita" class="mw-redirect" title="Ngāti Whaita">Ngāti Whaita</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-tkmentry_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-tkmentry-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-maorimaps_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-maorimaps-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li></ul> <p>In October 2020, the Government committed $1,259,392 from the <a href="/wiki/Provincial_Growth_Fund" class="mw-redirect" title="Provincial Growth Fund">Provincial Growth Fund</a> to upgrade Ngātira Marae and 7 other Ngāti Raukawa marae, creating 18 jobs.<sup id="cite_ref-maraepgf_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-maraepgf-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Geography">Geography</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Tokoroa&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Geography"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Location">Location</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Tokoroa&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Location"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Surrounding the township are many <a href="/wiki/Dairy_Farming" class="mw-redirect" title="Dairy Farming">dairy farms</a> and <a href="/wiki/Forests" class="mw-redirect" title="Forests">plantation forests</a>.

Most of the Kinleith workers live in Tokoroa, with a small number commuting from other South Waikato towns.

These other industries include (but are not limited to): the manufacture of cheese (and related dairy products [via <a href="/wiki/Fonterra" title="Fonterra">Fonterra</a>]), specialised wooden boxing, timber joinery, saw milling, general engineering, and the quarrying of building (masonry) stone. </p><p>Although Tokoroa's economy primarily tends to revolve around timber and farming, many large retail companies have continued investing in the town – Foodstuffs recently constructed and opened a <a href="/wiki/New_World_(supermarket)" title="New World (supermarket)">New World (supermarket)</a> on Tokoroa's main street (Bridge Street).

A wooden bridge located on the south-west end of the dam wall that supported and controlled the drain valve was a favourite 'bomb' spot, and barefoot skiing down the spillway was early <a href="/wiki/Extreme_sport" title="Extreme sport">extreme sport</a> unique to Tokoroa. During the 1970s, 'The Lake' was used extensively by youths and was referred to in local parlance as 'Tokoroa Beach'. On many summer afternoons, it was a common sight to see youth lying on the footpath across the road from the lake drying out after a swim. </p><p>In the period following the initial construction of the dam in the late 1970s, the lake began to deteriorate due to low rainfall and poor water flows, which saw lake weed overtake the swimming areas. The lake weed eventually became a drowning hazard that claimed the lives of swimmers over the preceding decade. In this sense, the project was a failure, and Lake Moana-Nui was considered unsafe. In an effort to control the problems, signs were erected banning access to the dam wall, and basic handrailing was put up to prevent public access. The lake was subject to regular draining in an effort to control the weed and to flush out the stale, stagnant water. While this did slightly improve the situation in the short term, people were warned not to swim in it. The lake is undergoing a major cleaning project so that it can be used in the future.<sup id="cite_ref-63" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-63"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>63<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> To date (as at 25 April 2015), Lake Moana-Nui has been fully drained, refilled, and restored – and has been cleared by the local council for public recreation (as it was in its heyday during the 1970s and 80's). </p><p>There are picnic tables built around the lakes arc and there are four playgrounds.
