How renting in Hope Mills 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	37.2% (±3.5 points)	33.5% (±3.5 points)	−3.7 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$928 (±$34)	$1,141 (±$86)	+23.0%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$48,948 (±$2,919)	$65,774 (±$4,054)	+34.4%	Up 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.
