	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Median gross rent	$1,596 (±$53)	$2,336 (±$90)	+46.4%	Up after inflation

Rental vacancy rate	7.1% (±2.8 points)	3.0% (±1.7 points)	−4.1 percentage points	Measurable decrease

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