That is a median of $400,000 at the 2021 census, set beside $695,000 for Ontario’s towns. Statistics Canada doesn’t publish sales in Ontario, so nothing here says what Tyendinaga’s homes actually sold for. The 2024 property assessment puts the median residential property at $207,000. Ontario still assesses at 2016 values (MPAC’s 1 January 2016 base): a figure to set against other Ontario towns, not against prices.

Two sources, each set against Ontario’s towns only: provinces measure value differently, so they don’t line up across borders. Those values come from owners at the 2021 census and predate the prices of the years since.
