How renting in Baldwin 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	26.5% (±2.4 points)	22.2% (±3.1 points)	−4.3 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$793 (±$23)	$1,066 (±$79)	+34.4%	Up after inflation
Median household income	$65,420 (±$4,309)	$80,983 (±$7,079)	+23.8%	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.
