How renting in Union 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	18.5% (±7.2 points)	9.3% (±3.8 points)	−9.2 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$708 (±$115)	$1,102 (±$172)	+55.6%	Up after inflation
Median household income	$71,250 (±$18,353)	$105,833 (±$7,305)	+48.5%	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.
