How rent in Danville Township has changed since 2015–2019

2015–2019 and 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimates
	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Median gross rent	$670 (±$32)	$837 (±$38)	+24.9%	No measurable change after inflation

Rental vacancy rate	11.4% (±3.2 points)	10.9% (±3.7 points)	−0.5 percentage points	Not a measurable change

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