Homes in Fairview are worth 37% more than the median of Ontario’s towns
The census median was $950,000 in 2021, against $695,000 for Ontario’s towns. Owners gave those values at the May 2021 census; they are estimates, and older than today’s prices. Sale prices aren’t published in Ontario: what owners told the census is the figure to go on for Fairview.
What Fairview’s homes are worth, two ways
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.
