How renting in Springdale 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	50.5% (±2.4 points)	46.6% (±2.3 points)	−3.9 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$777 (±$17)	$1,071 (±$35)	+37.8%	Up after inflation
Median household income	$50,343 (±$1,490)	$69,787 (±$3,578)	+38.6%	Up after inflation

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