Owners valued the median home at $552,000 at the 2021 census, and the average at $538,603. No open sale prices are published in Ontario, so for Bartonville the census value is the measure. For 2024, the median assessed value of a residential property is $353,000. Ontario’s assessments are still on MPAC’s values of 1 January 2016, far below today’s prices, so they compare only with other Ontario towns. Nobody publishes assessed values, values by property type and building permits for Bartonville alone, so this card uses the figure for the city of Hamilton.
