How renting in Tara Hills 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	38.3% (±7.6 points)	31.2% (±8.9 points)	−7.1 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$1,750 (±$238)	$2,451 (±$265)	+40.1%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$73,857 (±$9,547)	$101,747 (±$28,527)	+37.8%	No measurable change 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.
