How renting in Beachwood 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	37.7% (±3.9 points)	46.3% (±4.7 points)	+8.6 percentage points	Measurable increase
Median gross rent	$1,734 (±$56)	$2,047 (±$195)	+18.1%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$89,190 (±$8,293)	$106,748 (±$9,181)	+19.7%	No measurable change after inflation

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