Half the owned homes in Satoo are valued above $348,000
It is the middle of what 740 owner households told the 2021 census. No sales are published for towns in Alberta, Satoo included, so owners’ values are the measure. Assessors valued the median residential property at $360,000 for 2024. Behind assessed values, values by property type and building permits sits data gathered across the city of Edmonton, with Satoo one part of it.
