How renting in Largo 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	41.5% (±1.8 points)	38.3% (±1.9 points)	−3.2 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$1,076 (±$20)	$1,618 (±$56)	+50.4%	Up after inflation
Median household income	$44,323 (±$2,292)	$62,096 (±$1,982)	+40.1%	Up 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.
