How renting in Mount Ida 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	44.2% (±10.8 points)	44.0% (±13.3 points)	−0.2 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$538 (±$49)	$576 (±$148)	+7.1%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$39,091 (±$7,279)	$37,045 (±$11,134)	−5.2%	No measurable change after inflation

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