Scope notes

All figures are the municipal (lower-tier) portion only. The regional municipality's portion and the provincial education tax are set by those bodies, appear on the same bill, and are never part of this series or added to the municipal figure.

The 2026 figure of 6.99% is the sum the Town itself publishes: a 5.45% general tax rate increase plus a 0.64% state-of-good-repair levy and a 0.90% fire master plan levy — every component is a Town-level levy. The Town's share of the whole-bill increase (3.53%) and the whole-bill increase itself (5.07%) are different scopes and are recorded in notes only. On an average home assessed at $454,800 the Town's increase is about +$138 per year.

One disclosure, recorded openly: the 6.99% comes from the Town's 2026 budget overview, and its adoption was confirmed through the Town's budget engagement page (Council approved the budget on December 3, 2025, with tax-increase targets matching the overview). A separate restatement of the figure inside the final approved budget book has not been located in the Town's published budget material. The figure stands as published and confirmed; the disclosure is kept so the sourcing is exact.

A year shown as “No data” has no bar for property tax and no line point for that series. A missing year breaks a line: no line segment crosses a gap, and no value is interpolated. Inflation for 2026 is not yet published as an annual average. Each Canadian dollar Real CEER value is the annual average of the 12 monthly total Real CEER values from the Bank of Canada (a computed annual average, not a figure the Bank publishes directly as an annual value). CEER is an index on a separate right axis and is not a percentage. CEER for 2026 is No data because the year is incomplete.

Housing property-tax historical trend

The trend uses one measure only: the Town of Halton Hills total tax rate increase — the general tax rate increase plus the Town's own special levies (state of good repair; fire master plan). Each row is the figure for that year on that one measure. A year with no verified figure on that measure is shown as No data.

Separate note — tax rates, not the trend

This note is separate from the trend above and is not part of it. A residential tax rate per $1,000 of assessed value can move even when the levy increase is small, because the assessment base changes. Rate figures are therefore not used as the trend and are not mixed into the increase chart.

Town portion, 2026: $515.80 per $100,000 of assessment = $5.1580 per $1,000 (Town residential rate 0.5158%). Source: Town of Halton Hills, 2026 Budget Overview, https://ic12.esolg.ca/11202064_HaltonHills/en/your-government/Budget/2026/01-2026BudgetOverview.pdf

Method

This trend uses one metric only, every year: the Town of Halton Hills total tax rate increase — the general tax rate increase plus the Town's own special levies (state of good repair; fire master plan).

Where a city publishes an increase as components, the components are recorded in the scope notes; a total is used only where the city itself publishes it.

Canada inflation is Statistics Canada, Table 18-10-0005-01, CPI annual average. Canadian dollar Real CEER is Bank of Canada, Valet series CEER_BROADM, total index (1999=100); each value is the annual average of the 12 monthly total Real CEER values (a computed annual average, not a figure the Bank publishes directly as an annual value).

How to read this page

Bars are the Halton Hills total tax rate increase. Lines are Canada inflation and Canadian dollar Real CEER.

The left axis is a percentage axis shared by the bars and the inflation line. The right axis is a separate index axis for Canadian dollar Real CEER only. CEER is an index and is not a percentage.

A year shown as “No data” has no bar for property tax and no line point for that series, and a missing year breaks a line.

Tax rates per $1,000 are separate from the trend and are not charted.
