How renting in Almer Township 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	15.6% (±4.6 points)	9.5% (±3.9 points)	−6.1 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$714 (±$100)	$736 (±$65)	+3.1%	Down after inflation
Median household income	$54,148 (±$6,017)	$62,188 (±$13,687)	+14.8%	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.
