How renting in Maple Forest 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	11.7% (±5.7 points)	9.5% (±4.3 points)	−2.2 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$54,531 (±$10,964)	$79,167 (±$15,415)	+45.2%	No measurable change after inflation

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