How renting in Deer 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	6.4% (±2.9 points)	26.5% (±6.6 points)	+20.1 percentage points	Measurable increase

Median household income	$167,448 (±$13,465)	$174,458 (±$38,238)	+4.2%	No measurable change after inflation

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