The census of 2021 asked 15,370 owner households what their home was worth. Statistics Canada doesn’t publish sales in Ontario, so nothing here says what Caledonia’s homes actually sold for. The 2024 property assessment puts the median residential property at $260,000. Ontario still assesses at 2016 values (MPAC’s 1 January 2016 base): a figure to set against other Ontario towns, not against prices.
What Caledonia’s homes are worth, two ways
Two sources, each set against Ontario’s towns only: provinces measure value differently, so they don’t line up across borders. Keep in mind these are owners’ estimates from the 2021 census, not recorded sales.
