	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	15.0% (±6.9 points)	26.8% (±9.1 points)	+11.8 percentage points	Measurable increase

Median household income	$63,370 (±$5,874)	$73,889 (±$13,839)	+16.6%	No measurable change after inflation

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