How renting in Bassett 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	20.4% (±6.3 points)	34.4% (±9.0 points)	+14.0 percentage points	Measurable increase
Median gross rent	$492 (±$79)	$651 (±$57)	+32.3%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$68,333 (±$8,817)	$42,697 (±$5,247)	−37.5%	Down 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.
