How renting in Crownpoint 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	54.0% (±6.1 points)	56.1% (±11.5 points)	+2.1 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$589 (±$51)	$593 (±$199)	+0.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$42,708 (±$7,122)	$51,011 (±$19,685)	+19.4%	No measurable change after inflation

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