How renting in Big Spring Township has changed since 2015–2019

	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	17.8% (±6.5 points)	11.6% (±4.9 points)	−6.2 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$58,750 (±$4,096)	$73,688 (±$12,498)	+25.4%	No measurable change after inflation

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