How renting in Beach Park 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	16.3% (±4.9 points)	13.2% (±3.8 points)	−3.1 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$1,482 (±$195)	$1,254 (±$312)	−15.4%	Down after inflation
Median household income	$71,867 (±$4,143)	$85,664 (±$9,566)	+19.2%	No measurable change after inflation

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