How renting in Three Rivers 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	17.8% (±6.4 points)	35.0% (±15.1 points)	+17.2 percentage points	Measurable increase
Median gross rent	$1,305 (±$242)	$1,557 (±$746)	+19.3%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$72,904 (±$14,074)	$85,695 (±$8,723)	+17.5%	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.

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