How renting in Argyle 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	11.0% (±4.6 points)	15.6% (±6.0 points)	+4.6 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$706 (±$159)	$929 (±$310)	+31.6%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$50,000 (±$5,152)	$54,583 (±$9,608)	+9.2%	No measurable change after inflation

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