How renting in Bass River Township 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	12.3% (±5.7 points)	14.0% (±6.7 points)	+1.7 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$78,056 (±$17,717)	$75,833 (±$30,152)	−2.8%	No measurable change after inflation

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