How renting in Park 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	35.3% (±8.7 points)	47.2% (±10.6 points)	+11.9 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$877 (±$101)	$1,384 (±$267)	+57.8%	Up after inflation
Median household income	$65,240 (±$20,253)	$70,179 (±$30,402)	+7.6%	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.
