How renting in Cedar Point 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	16.8% (±4.2 points)	12.8% (±5.0 points)	−4.0 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$1,219 (±$207)	$1,438 (±$495)	+18.0%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$78,646 (±$7,474)	$98,750 (±$10,020)	+25.6%	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.
