By the 2021 census, half of owned homes were worth more than $484,000; the average was $464,721. Sale prices aren’t published in Alberta: what owners told the census is the figure to go on for Allard. On the 2024 assessment, the middle residential property is valued at $360,000. Figures for assessed values, values by property type and building permits are published for the city of Edmonton as a whole, not for Allard alone.
