Property prices in Stouffville · Census 2021 and Statistics Canada

Stouffville’s housing is newer than most: 59% has gone up since 2001, against 17% for Ontario’s towns

Asked in 2021, owners gave a median value of $1,000,000; averaged, their homes came to $1,194,000. No sales are published for towns in Ontario, Stouffville included, so owners’ values are the measure. The 2024 property assessment puts the median residential property at $700,000. 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.
