How renting in Divernon 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	20.9% (±7.6 points)	22.1% (±8.9 points)	+1.2 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$65,667 (±$7,630)	$71,750 (±$14,082)	+9.3%	No measurable change after inflation

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