	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	29.2% (±7.7 points)	36.0% (±10.3 points)	+6.8 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$75,469 (±$13,044)	$88,813 (±$15,315)	+17.7%	No measurable change after inflation

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