	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Median household income	$132,132 (±$19,654)	$151,442 (±$9,627)	+14.6%	No measurable change after inflation
Median home value	$343,300 (±$18,673)	$461,300 (±$46,727)	+34.4%	No measurable change after inflation

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