How renting in Tolono 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	17.6% (±9.4 points)	29.4% (±13.9 points)	+11.8 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$604 (±$129)	$945 (±$198)	+56.5%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$66,445 (±$13,239)	$69,653 (±$31,354)	+4.8%	No measurable change after inflation

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