An apartment town: 40% of Meyokumin’s homes, against 14% across Alberta’s towns
Owners valued the median home at $296,000 at the 2021 census, and the average at $282,422. An owner’s figure, not a sale: the census of May 2021 asked what each home would fetch. No open sale prices are published in Alberta, so for Meyokumin the census value is the measure.
