By the 2021 census, half of owned homes were worth more than $850,000; the average was $837,121. Statistics Canada’s housing statistics carry no sale prices in Ontario; the census value stands in for Fenside-Parkwoods. On the 2024 assessment, the middle residential property is valued at $557,000. 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. For assessed values, values by property type and building permits, the only official count covers all of the city of Toronto, Fenside-Parkwoods included.
