That is a median of $500,000 at the 2021 census, set beside $695,000 for Ontario’s towns. What homes sold for in Huron-Kinloss isn’t public: no sale figures are released in Ontario. For 2024, the median assessed value of a residential property is $213,000. 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.
