How renting in Elmore City 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	28.9% (±7.1 points)	24.5% (±8.1 points)	−4.4 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$650 (±$76)	$791 (±$169)	+21.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$44,250 (±$10,486)	$35,694 (±$11,642)	−19.3%	Down after inflation

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