How renting in Winter Garden 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	28.6% (±3.3 points)	34.3% (±4.0 points)	+5.7 percentage points	Measurable increase
Median gross rent	$1,106 (±$67)	$1,963 (±$217)	+77.5%	Up after inflation
Median household income	$73,739 (±$8,185)	$106,495 (±$7,925)	+44.4%	Up after inflation

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