The average covers every home type sold, so neighbourhoods with more condos rank lower than their detached prices would put them: each neighbourhood's report breaks its prices down. The yearly change compares the price with the same month a year earlier. From our Greater Toronto Area report, built from the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB).

Left out because they had fewer than 30 sales this month, too few for a steady average: Sunnylea & Stonegate-Queensway (9), Kingsview Village-The Westway & Richview (19), North York & Clanton Park (26), Moore Park & Rosedale (18), York Mills & St. Andrew-Windfields (17), Riverdale & Danforth (28), The Beaches & Woodbine Corridor (27), Birch Cliff & Oakridge (22).
