	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	11.4% (±3.1 points)	19.3% (±5.5 points)	+7.9 percentage points	Measurable increase

Median household income	$58,636 (±$6,785)	$63,000 (±$9,985)	+7.4%	No measurable change after inflation

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