How renting in Marlton 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	18.9% (±3.4 points)	13.0% (±4.3 points)	−5.9 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$1,693 (±$96)	$2,026 (±$200)	+19.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$108,506 (±$7,803)	$109,328 (±$18,146)	+0.8%	Down 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.
