By the 2021 census, half of owned homes were worth more than $348,000; the average was $471,547. Statistics Canada doesn’t publish sales in Alberta, so nothing here says what Bankview’s homes actually sold for. Assessors valued the median residential property at $525,000 for 2024. For assessed values, values by property type and building permits, the only official count covers all of the city of Calgary, Bankview included.
