The 2021 census gives $448,000 as the median value; Ontario’s towns come to $695,000. These home values were given by owners themselves, in a census taken in May 2021. There is no public record of sale prices in Ontario, which leaves the census value as the guide for Kingsville.
Two ways to price a home in Kingsville
Each source sits beside its own median for Ontario’s towns; none compares across provinces, which value homes in their own ways. Ontario still assesses at 2016 values (MPAC’s 1 January 2016 base): a figure to set against other Ontario towns, not against prices.
