How renting in Kingston 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	33.8% (±12.6 points)	15.6% (±7.6 points)	−18.2 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$571 (±$185)	$535 (±$195)	−6.3%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$53,214 (±$21,948)	$64,327 (±$20,641)	+20.9%	No measurable change after inflation

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