How renting in Pueblo West 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	18.6% (±2.6 points)	12.7% (±1.9 points)	−5.9 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$1,037 (±$73)	$1,345 (±$75)	+29.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$71,553 (±$3,631)	$96,810 (±$10,705)	+35.3%	No measurable change after inflation

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