How renting in Wilburton 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	43.0% (±5.7 points)	36.6% (±6.7 points)	−6.4 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$651 (±$57)	$660 (±$68)	+1.4%	Down after inflation
Median household income	$33,464 (±$5,555)	$38,971 (±$5,821)	+16.5%	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.
