How renting in Brazil has changed since 2015–2019

2015–20192020–2024Amount of changeVerdict
Households that rent42.2% (±6.8 points)27.2% (±7.8 points)−15.0 percentage pointsMeasurable decrease

Median household income$43,428 (±$7,906)$52,055 (±$16,563)+19.9%No measurable change after inflation

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

Prices (the CPI-U, US Bureau of Labor Statistics) rose 22.7% between 2019 and 2024, so a dollar figure’s verdict compares the two after raising the earlier one by that much, using the Census Bureau’s test for a difference.

The two periods do not overlap, as the Census Bureau recommends for 5-year estimates.
