Blenheim was incorporated as a town in 1885 and was amalgamated into the Chatham-Kent municipality during Kent County’s 1998 reorganization. The community benefits from quick access to the waters of Lake Erie and also to Chatham, the municipality’s commercial centre.

In 2019, the average list price for a property in the region is about $250,000, this value reflecting a 20% increase from the 2018 numbers.
