How renting in Duncan 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	21.6% (±10.1 points)	49.2% (±13.4 points)	+27.6 percentage points	Measurable increase
Median gross rent	$633 (±$235)	$665 (±$88)	+5.1%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$45,625 (±$11,335)	$33,529 (±$13,169)	−26.5%	Down 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.
