How renting in Bellevue 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	21.0% (±9.2 points)	37.3% (±12.1 points)	+16.3 percentage points	Measurable increase
Median gross rent	$821 (±$346)	$1,109 (±$685)	+35.1%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$63,867 (±$12,511)	$72,712 (±$16,158)	+13.8%	No measurable change after inflation

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

Prices (the CPI-U, US Bureau of Labor Statistics) rose 22.7% between 2019 and 2024, so a dollar figure’s verdict compares the two after raising the earlier one by that much, using the Census Bureau’s test for a difference.

The two periods do not overlap, as the Census Bureau recommends for 5-year estimates.
