The census median was $412,000 in 2021, against $695,000 for Ontario’s towns. Self-assessed in May 2021, these values predate the rate rises that followed. Sale prices aren’t published in Ontario: what owners told the census is the figure to go on for Argyle.
Two ways to price a home in Argyle
Each source sits beside its own median for Ontario’s towns; none compares across provinces, which value homes in their own ways. 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. Behind assessed values, values by property type and building permits sits data gathered across the city of London, with Argyle one part of it.
