How renting in Oxon Hill 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	44.2% (±3.2 points)	38.5% (±3.6 points)	−5.7 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$1,509 (±$73)	$1,721 (±$80)	+14.0%	Down after inflation
Median household income	$88,327 (±$5,014)	$93,252 (±$5,608)	+5.6%	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.
