How renting in Clover 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	30.9% (±6.1 points)	19.9% (±5.3 points)	−11.0 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$864 (±$154)	$841 (±$361)	−2.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$50,511 (±$6,881)	$85,450 (±$12,539)	+69.2%	Up 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.
