	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	54.2% (±3.1 points)	53.0% (±3.6 points)	−1.2 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$49,517 (±$3,894)	$61,689 (±$7,519)	+24.6%	No measurable change after inflation

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