Income against housing costs since 2015–2019

2015–2019 and 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimates
	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Median household income	$96,146 (±$25,237)	$140,517 (±$10,454)	+46.1%	No measurable change after inflation
Median home value	$356,100 (±$23,758)	$576,700 (±$46,328)	+61.9%	Up after inflation

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