How renting in Bay Harbor Islands 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	53.6% (±7.4 points)	51.1% (±7.9 points)	−2.5 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$1,774 (±$93)	$2,442 (±$309)	+37.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$78,169 (±$8,880)	$89,663 (±$32,566)	+14.7%	No measurable change after inflation

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