How renting in the Town of Eagle 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	8.6% (±4.2 points)	19.4% (±7.8 points)	+10.8 percentage points	Measurable increase
Median gross rent	$758 (±$188)	$736 (±$101)	−2.9%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$64,881 (±$7,751)	$72,778 (±$18,800)	+12.2%	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.
