	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	16.9% (±2.7 points)	16.9% (±2.8 points)	0.0 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$117,031 (±$7,053)	$129,863 (±$9,873)	+11.0%	Down after inflation

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