It lies 23.6 km south of Joliette, QC (from Joliette, QC: bearing 178°T), and is situated 14.5 km south-west of Lavaltrie.

A quiet dignity pervades L'Assomption, a sense of settled life where the air carries the faint scent of damp soil and ripening crops, especially in the late summer when the sun begins its slow descent, painting the western horizon in hues of rose and gold. Historically, L'Assomption has been a place where the land and its bounty have dictated the pace of life, its economy long rooted in agriculture, particularly apple orchards that still dot the surrounding countryside, bursting with colour in the autumn. The river, a vital artery, facilitated early trade and communication, and remnants of that past can be glimpsed in the sturdy architecture that has weathered the seasons. Today, L'Assomption continues to draw strength from its agricultural heritage, while also embracing a more diversified economy that supports a vibrant cultural scene, evident in the local festivals and the preservation of its heritage buildings, a quiet testament to generations who have called this riverside haven home.
L'Assomption, nichée doucement sur les rives de sa rivière éponyme, respire une quiétude qui semble avoir traversé les âges. Le paysage, empreint d'une fertilité héritée de générations d'agriculteurs, déroule ses champs généreux, où le murmure des vents se mêle aux échos d'une histoire riche, marquée par les premiers colons et le travail de la terre. Ici, le ciel vaste du Québec semble se pencher sur les toits des maisons anciennes et les clochers élancés, tandis que la rivière, artère vitale, trace un chemin paisible à travers le tissu de la vie locale. Les traditions s'y perpétuent, discrètes mais vivaces, comme le parfum subtil des vergers en fleur qui flotte dans l'air au printemps, ou le rythme mesuré des saisons qui dicte la cadence de L'Assomption. Les ponts qui enjambent l'eau ne sont pas de simples passages, mais des liens entre le passé et le présent, des témoins silencieux d'une communauté qui chérit son patrimoine, un lieu où la lumière du crépuscule vient caresser les façades avec une douceur presque palpable, invitant à la contemplation.
