How renting in Worthington 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	11.9% (±4.7 points)	6.3% (±2.6 points)	−5.6 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$824 (±$167)	$633 (±$220)	−23.2%	Down after inflation
Median household income	$76,250 (±$9,065)	$91,667 (±$17,029)	+20.2%	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.

The two periods do not overlap, as the Census Bureau recommends for 5-year estimates.
