How renting in Springport 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	21.2% (±5.1 points)	19.3% (±5.9 points)	−1.9 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$950 (±$160)	$914 (±$114)	−3.8%	Down after inflation
Median household income	$58,281 (±$10,140)	$57,688 (±$7,786)	−1.0%	No measurable change after inflation

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