How renting in North El Monte 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	39.1% (±9.2 points)	35.9% (±8.4 points)	−3.2 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$1,828 (±$211)	$2,366 (±$192)	+29.4%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$63,875 (±$12,782)	$99,447 (±$21,124)	+55.7%	No measurable change after inflation

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