How renting in Lindsay 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	36.3% (±6.0 points)	45.6% (±7.0 points)	+9.3 percentage points	Measurable increase
Median gross rent	$715 (±$73)	$768 (±$75)	+7.4%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$44,235 (±$3,566)	$52,000 (±$12,639)	+17.6%	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.

The two periods do not overlap, as the Census Bureau recommends for 5-year estimates.
