Home values in Lambton run 40% lower than the median of Quebec’s towns

That is a median of $180,000 at the 2021 census, set beside $300,000 for Quebec’s towns. No sales are published for towns in Quebec, Lambton included, so owners’ values are the measure. The town’s assessors, on the 2024 roll, put the median house at $233,600 (market of July 1, 2022).
