	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	28.3% (±3.6 points)	35.2% (±4.8 points)	+6.9 percentage points	Measurable increase

Median household income	$104,315 (±$8,154)	$117,167 (±$13,450)	+12.3%	No measurable change after inflation

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