How renting in Bradley Gardens 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	10.3% (±2.8 points)	9.8% (±3.5 points)	−0.5 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$139,716 (±$11,101)	$177,849 (±$17,319)	+27.3%	No measurable change after inflation

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