Some 1,045 owner households gave their home’s value to the 2021 census. These home values were given by owners themselves, in a census taken in May 2021. No sales are published for towns in Quebec, Stoke included, so owners’ values are the measure. Québec’s 2025 property roll puts single-family homes at a median $393,300, at market values of July 1, 2023.
