How renting in Newton Grove 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	49.0% (±12.8 points)	28.1% (±13.7 points)	−20.9 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$758 (±$188)	$995 (±$94)	+31.3%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$52,083 (±$21,691)	$68,906 (±$31,371)	+32.3%	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.
