Each part of the rate, year by year

Over the same years the residential assessment base moved from $1,980M to $2,119M, and the residential levy collected went from $13M to $18M. A rate rising while the base also grows means the budget grew faster than property values; a rate falling while the base grows usually means the opposite. Assessment is the figure on the MPAC notice, still based on 2016 values province-wide.

Why are Adjala-Tosorontio property taxes so low?

Adjala-Tosorontio's total rate of 0.84% is 0.55 percentage points below the provincial middle (1.40%), which is not the same as a small bill. The taxable value is large next to what the budget must cover — $2.12B of residential value funds $17.9M in levy here — so a lower percentage raises enough, and the dollar amount on an expensive house can still be high.

Home values

Homes here are assessed at $511,956 per household, 87% more than the middle ($274,250). Higher values let it raise the same money per household at a lower rate.

Spending

It spends $3,629 per household, 16% less than the middle ($4,313). It spends more on roads and bridges (+$280), fire (+$186) and snow and ice (+$145), and less on parks and recreation (−$492) and water and wastewater (−$259).

Ontario has no official cost-of-living index for single towns. Statistics Canada’s consumer price index covers only Toronto, Ottawa and Thunder Bay here, and it measures change over time, not the gap between places. These are the costs published for each municipality: what renters paid and owners estimated in the 2021 Census, not today’s asking rents or sale prices.
