How renting in Moscow Mills 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	40.5% (±8.7 points)	32.9% (±12.0 points)	−7.6 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$975 (±$56)	$1,107 (±$277)	+13.5%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$44,375 (±$10,133)	$73,468 (±$19,630)	+65.6%	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.
