The 2021 census gives $348,000 as the median value; Ontario’s towns come to $695,000. No sales are published for towns in Ontario, Dawn-Euphemia included, so owners’ values are the measure. The 2024 property assessment puts the median residential property at $129,000. Ontario still assesses at 2016 values (MPAC’s 1 January 2016 base): a figure to set against other Ontario towns, not against prices.

Two sources, each set against Ontario’s towns only: provinces measure value differently, so they don’t line up across borders. Treat the values as owners’ May 2021 guesses: they are self-reported, and they come from before rates went up.
