Owners valued the median home at $348,000 in 2021, where the median of Ontario’s towns was $695,000. Owners gave those values at the May 2021 census; they are estimates, and older than today’s prices. No sales are published for towns in Ontario, Chisholm included, so owners’ values are the measure.

Every figure here is compared within the province, against Ontario’s towns, since each province assesses on its own terms. Ontario still assesses at 2016 values (MPAC’s 1 January 2016 base): a figure to set against other Ontario towns, not against prices.
