How rent in Marco Island has changed since 2015–2019

2015–2019 and 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimates
	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Median gross rent	$1,638 (±$236)	$1,990 (±$197)	+21.5%	No measurable change after inflation
Households that rent	12.5% (±2.3 points)	10.6% (±2.8 points)	−1.9 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Rental vacancy rate	28.4% (±8.4 points)	28.6% (±11.8 points)	+0.2 percentage points	Not a measurable change

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