How renting in Franconia 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	24.2% (±8.7 points)	16.9% (±7.0 points)	−7.3 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$68,750 (±$19,978)	$87,292 (±$27,597)	+27.0%	No measurable change after inflation

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