How renting in Hidden Valley Lake 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	26.0% (±7.8 points)	11.5% (±4.8 points)	−14.5 percentage points	Measurable decrease

Median household income	$70,406 (±$8,539)	$84,152 (±$18,686)	+19.5%	No measurable change after inflation

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