How renting in Pine Prairie 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	40.6% (±11.8 points)	30.6% (±14.1 points)	−10.0 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$644 (±$67)	$758 (±$178)	+17.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$36,500 (±$7,272)	$33,352 (±$10,436)	−8.6%	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.
