How renting in New London 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	22.6% (±9.1 points)	33.9% (±9.9 points)	+11.3 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$767 (±$171)	$755 (±$121)	−1.6%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$55,938 (±$9,771)	$63,021 (±$15,090)	+12.7%	No measurable change after inflation

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