Owners valued the median home at $500,000 in 2021, where the median of Ontario’s towns was $695,000. Statistics Canada doesn’t publish sales in Ontario, so nothing here says what Almonte’s homes actually sold for. Assessors valued the median residential property at $298,000 for 2024. MPAC hasn’t reassessed since its 1 January 2016 values, which is why the figure sits well under the census value; it compares only within Ontario.

Every figure here is compared within the province, against Ontario’s towns, since each province assesses on its own terms. What owners reported in May 2021 is an opinion of value; interest rates and prices have both moved since.
