How renting in Ignacio 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	51.5% (±6.0 points)	36.1% (±9.6 points)	−15.4 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$1,025 (±$57)	$1,123 (±$103)	+9.6%	Down after inflation
Median household income	$51,336 (±$3,261)	$67,593 (±$30,041)	+31.7%	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.
