How renting in Roundup 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	39.8% (±7.8 points)	26.5% (±8.9 points)	−13.3 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$767 (±$74)	$950 (±$571)	+23.9%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$34,310 (±$4,178)	$57,847 (±$15,475)	+68.6%	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.
