How rent in Eaton Rapids 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	4.4% (±2.6 points)	12.0% (±5.8 points)	+7.6 percentage points	Measurable increase
Rental vacancy rate	25.5% (±32.0 points)	14.2% (±18.6 points)	−11.3 percentage points	Not a measurable change

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