Income against housing costs since 2015–2019

2015–2019 and 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimates
	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict

Median gross rent	$969 (±$137)	$765 (±$357)	−21.1%	Down after inflation
Median home value	$180,000 (±$18,510)	$277,600 (±$15,216)	+54.2%	Up after inflation

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