How renting in Youngsville has changed since 2015–2019

	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict

Median household income	$89,038 (±$10,056)	$105,876 (±$20,115)	+18.9%	No measurable change after inflation

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