How renting in Homer Glen 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% (±1.5 points)	5.1% (±1.6 points)	−1.3 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$106,818 (±$3,416)	$136,678 (±$7,189)	+28.0%	No measurable change after inflation

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