House prices in Canada

Prince Edward Island is one of the most affordable Canadian provinces for buying a house, with prices almost half below the national median in 2023. The national figure is somewhat skewed however by the extremely high cost of housing in British Colombia, and, to a lesser extent, Ontario. A better measure of affordability is the provincial house-price-to-income ratio, which shows Prince Edward Island to be the second most affordable province.

Global comparison

Canada is one of the most expensive countries in the OECD in terms of house-price-to-income ratio. In 2022, Canada scored higher than the United States, the UK, and Korea. That means that the cost of housing has increased at a much higher rate than the average income in the country.
