How to read a neighbourhood median
A median mixes every kind of home. An area with lots of condo apartments will show a lower median than one that's mostly detached, even if its houses cost about the same. Check what's actually for sale before you decide an area is "cheap."
For context, the London-wide 90-day median for a condo apartment was $243K and for a detached home $610K, as of November 9, 2026. See the London market report.
Small numbers swing. Westminster (17 sales), Wortley Village (14 sales) and Pond Mills (19 sales) rest on fewer sales than Argyle (74) or White Oaks (59). Their medians can move a lot from one month to the next.
What stands out
Blackfriars is the quickest on this list, at 28 days on average over 15 sales.
Pond Mills takes the longest. It averaged 52 days on market with a 95.7% sale-to-list. Buyers there have time and room to negotiate.
Argyle and White Oaks have the most activity on this list. They had 74 and 59 sales, both at or under $478K. More sales means more to compare against when you offer.
Areas with too few sales to rank
Some neighbourhoods had fewer than 10 sales in the 90 days to November 9, 2026. That's too few for a fair median, so I haven't ranked them:
- Warbler Woods (1 sale)
- West Five (2)
- Sherwood Forest (3)
- Broughdale (4)
- Medway Heights (7)
- University Heights (8)
- Northridge (9)
If this is your first home
Two programs are worth knowing about before you buy:
- Ontario land transfer tax refund. First-time buyers can get a refund of up to $4,000 on the provincial land transfer tax (Ontario.ca).
- First Home Savings Account (FHSA). When you open your first FHSA you get $8,000 of contribution room, with a $40,000 lifetime limit (Canada Revenue Agency).
More on the steps is in my first-time home buyer guide.
Next steps
- Follow an area. Open any neighbourhood above and tap Follow, and I'll send you its numbers as they change.
- See what's for sale. For example, homes for sale in Downtown London or in Glen Cairn. Save the search so new listings come to you.
- Already own in one of these areas? See what your home is worth. Swap in your area, for example /valuation?area=glen-cairn.
I post a fresh read on every area each Monday in the weekly market update.
