What the ranking says
- The leading third (Westmount, Saint-Lambert, Beaconsfield, Kirkland, Candiac...) is at 24% or more: Westmount and the prestige South Shore, the West Island, then the suburbs where the million arrived with 2021.
- In 2016, the million was rare: the 2016 share is in the table, city by city, and it was nil or nearly so in most of the cities ranked today.
- The median price of houses sold at $1M and up (segment column) says whether the million is a floor or a ceiling in the city: close to $1M, it is an ordinary house turned expensive; well above, it is a true prestige market.
- The 16 cities missing from the ranking had fewer than 10 sales at a million in 2025 and fewer than 100 in ten years: the million remains the exception there.
What it changes for buying or selling
For a seller whose house nears the million in a city at the top of the ranking, the price is not a barrier: it is the city's norm, and buyers there are qualified for that amount. In a city at the bottom of the ranking, crossing the million changes the pool of buyers and the timing stretches: pricing strategy matters more than finishes. For a buyer at that budget, the table says where the million buys the median house and where it buys the exceptional one.
How to read this ranking
Every city in the table has its page in the houses over $1 million by city series, where the full 2016-2026 series and the method are detailed. Ranks are computed on the 34 cities tracked, not on all of Quebec: a missing city is not unranked, it is not tracked. Values are Centris (Matrix) figures for single-family house sales over January to September 2026; 2016 is the full year. Ties are ordered alphabetically. No new query: only aggregates already published are reordered.
Frequently asked questions
In which city does the largest share of houses sell for a million and up?
Westmount: 91% of houses sold over January to September 2026, ahead of Saint-Lambert (70%) and Beaconsfield (44%).
Why only these cities?
The ranking keeps the 34 cities where at least 10 houses sold at a million and up in 2025 or 100 in ten years, so the share is a measurement. Elsewhere, the million remains the exception.
Did the share rise everywhere?
Yes: the 2016 share is in the table and it is below the 2026 share in nearly every city. The 2021-2022 wave pushed entire cities above the million.
