	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	15.7% (±3.7 points)	13.6% (±5.9 points)	−2.1 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$80,438 (±$10,807)	$84,732 (±$10,301)	+5.3%	No measurable change after inflation

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