	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	45.9% (±13.8 points)	40.4% (±17.1 points)	−5.5 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$28,906 (±$20,786)	$46,705 (±$34,118)	+61.6%	No measurable change after inflation

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