How renting in Sulligent has changed since 2015–2019

2015–2019 and 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimates
	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	35.2% (±8.2 points)	39.5% (±10.3 points)	+4.3 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$395 (±$31)	$515 (±$148)	+30.4%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$24,091 (±$5,591)	$34,861 (±$9,759)	+44.7%	No measurable change after inflation

The Census Bureau publishes 2015–2019 dollars in 2019 dollars and 2020–2024 dollars in 2024 dollars.

Prices (the CPI-U, US Bureau of Labor Statistics) rose 22.7% between 2019 and 2024, so a dollar figure’s verdict compares the two after raising the earlier one by that much, using the Census Bureau’s test for a difference.

The two periods do not overlap, as the Census Bureau recommends for 5-year estimates.
