How renting in Edgewater 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	20.6% (±2.9 points)	9.9% (±2.3 points)	−10.7 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$1,086 (±$101)	$1,309 (±$247)	+20.5%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$49,878 (±$3,604)	$60,977 (±$4,546)	+22.3%	No measurable change after inflation

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