How renting in Hawkinsville 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	61.3% (±8.8 points)	49.8% (±11.2 points)	−11.5 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$715 (±$176)	$794 (±$401)	+11.0%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$33,245 (±$7,403)	$39,603 (±$12,636)	+19.1%	No measurable change after inflation

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