How renting in Windsor 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
Households that rent	19.0% (±7.3 points)	15.9% (±5.2 points)	−3.1 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$726 (±$84)	$732 (±$190)	+0.8%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$43,611 (±$9,297)	$69,722 (±$15,307)	+59.9%	No measurable change after inflation

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