How renting in Hermann 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	34.7% (±6.1 points)	25.4% (±5.7 points)	−9.3 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$597 (±$90)	$721 (±$285)	+20.8%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$47,463 (±$8,723)	$61,979 (±$9,479)	+30.6%	No measurable change after inflation

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

Prices (the CPI-U, US Bureau of Labor Statistics) rose 22.7% between 2019 and 2024, so a dollar figure’s verdict compares the two after raising the earlier one by that much, using the Census Bureau’s test for a difference.

The two periods do not overlap, as the Census Bureau recommends for 5-year estimates.
