What the numbers mean

  • Owners valued the median home at $834K in the 2021 census. Indexed to September 2026 prices with the Greater Toronto MLS® Home Price Index (-11% since then), that is about $744K, 19% below the Toronto-area suburbs median of $917K. It is an estimate: the index tracks the whole region, not this neighbourhood.
  • 8% of households rent, well below the 34% city-wide. Most people here own and stay a while.
  • 23% are 65 or older, versus 16% city-wide, a sign of long-time residents and a settled pace.
  • 90% of homes are single-detached houses, versus 40% city-wide.

How it's changing

These municipalities don't publish building permits by neighbourhood, so we can't chart construction here yet.

Safety

Neighbourhood-level crime figures aren't available for Hamilton. Policing there is by municipal and regional police services, and none publishes neighbourhood crime counts we can compare with Toronto's. Check Statistics Canada's crime tables for municipality-wide trends, and the local police website for crime maps. Why this is missing.
