The 2021 census put the median home at $950,000, with an average of $915,209. No open sale prices are published in Ontario, so for Pleasant View the census value is the measure. Assessors valued the median residential property at $557,000 for 2024. 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 Toronto, with Pleasant View one part of it.
