How renting in Cherry Creek 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	31.6% (±4.2 points)	20.2% (±3.8 points)	−11.4 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$1,617 (±$111)	$2,093 (±$194)	+29.4%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$110,988 (±$13,210)	$153,776 (±$18,341)	+38.6%	No measurable change after inflation

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