How renting in Tallapoosa 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	39.2% (±10.8 points)	44.9% (±12.6 points)	+5.7 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$472 (±$245)	$676 (±$276)	+43.2%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$49,211 (±$15,359)	$62,599 (±$10,348)	+27.2%	No measurable change after inflation

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