How renting in Grovetown 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	44.1% (±8.5 points)	40.9% (±8.2 points)	−3.2 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$1,140 (±$75)	$1,407 (±$119)	+23.4%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$68,756 (±$9,884)	$85,660 (±$16,611)	+24.6%	No measurable change after inflation

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