How renting in Eagle 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	14.7% (±2.4 points)	15.9% (±2.7 points)	+1.2 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$1,138 (±$169)	$1,765 (±$113)	+55.1%	Up after inflation
Median household income	$92,807 (±$8,431)	$122,894 (±$5,881)	+32.4%	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.
