How renting in Roseville 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	34.2% (±1.3 points)	31.2% (±1.2 points)	−3.0 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$1,604 (±$33)	$2,142 (±$55)	+33.5%	Up after inflation
Median household income	$89,082 (±$3,100)	$119,288 (±$3,284)	+33.9%	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.
