How renting in Piggott 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	39.6% (±8.3 points)	40.1% (±8.3 points)	+0.5 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$728 (±$99)	$738 (±$85)	+1.4%	Down after inflation
Median household income	$36,157 (±$4,707)	$44,468 (±$9,152)	+23.0%	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.
