How renting in Paonia 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	25.5% (±6.5 points)	38.7% (±11.3 points)	+13.2 percentage points	Measurable increase
Median gross rent	$734 (±$103)	$897 (±$294)	+22.2%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$41,683 (±$6,167)	$59,574 (±$9,042)	+42.9%	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.
