That is a median of $348,000 at the 2021 census, set beside $695,000 for Ontario’s towns. A census value is an owner’s guess at a selling price in May 2021, and prices have moved since. Sale prices aren’t published in Ontario: what owners told the census is the figure to go on for South Walkerville.
South Walkerville’s homes, by two sources
Two sources, each set against Ontario’s towns only: provinces measure value differently, so they don’t line up across borders. 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.
