How home values in Washington Township (Lehigh County) have changed since 2015–2019

2015–2019 and 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimates
	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Median home value	$215,800 (±$15,454)	$282,100 (±$15,658)	+30.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median owner cost with a mortgage	$1,681 (±$103)	$1,795 (±$189)	+6.8%	Down after inflation
Median real estate taxes	$4,351 (±$388)	$5,236 (±$563)	+20.3%	No measurable change after inflation

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