How renting in Orangeburg 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	30.9% (±4.8 points)	24.2% (±7.9 points)	−6.7 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$981 (±$138)	$1,292 (±$237)	+31.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$85,507 (±$15,334)	$106,906 (±$40,233)	+25.0%	No measurable change after inflation

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

Prices (the CPI-U, US Bureau of Labor Statistics) rose 22.7% between 2019 and 2024, so a dollar figure’s verdict compares the two after raising the earlier one by that much, using the Census Bureau’s test for a difference.

The two periods do not overlap, as the Census Bureau recommends for 5-year estimates.
