How home values in Laguna Niguel have changed since 2015–2019

2015–2019 and 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimates
	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Median home value	$827,100 (±$15,843)	$1,190,900 (±$36,453)	+44.0%	Up after inflation
Median owner cost with a mortgage	$3,103 (±$104)	$3,755 (±$230)	+21.0%	No measurable change after inflation
Median real estate taxes	$5,306 (±$259)	$7,206 (±$453)	+35.8%	Up 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.

The two periods do not overlap, as the Census Bureau recommends for 5-year estimates.
