Total residential rate, with the tax on a $500,000 home underneath.Each part of the rate, year by year
Over the same years the residential assessment base moved from $846M to
$869M, and the residential levy collected went from $10M
to $12M. 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 North Glengarry property taxes so high?
They are not, measured against the rest of the province. North Glengarry's total rate of 1.35% sits close to the Ontario middle of 1.40%: lower than 56% of 414 municipalities. A bill can still feel high when the assessment is high, because the rate is only half of the calculation.
Home values
Homes here are assessed at $174,861 per household, 36% less than the middle ($274,250). Lower values mean it needs a higher rate to raise the same money.
Spending
It spends $3,266 per household, 24% less than the middle ($4,313). It spends more on garbage and recycling (+$130), and less on water and wastewater (−$172) and running the municipality (−$133).

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.
