How renting in Hanover 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	12.9% (±6.8 points)	13.2% (±5.5 points)	+0.3 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$550 (±$189)	$642 (±$61)	+16.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$59,375 (±$15,674)	$64,464 (±$22,846)	+8.6%	No measurable change after inflation

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