How renting in Addison 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	80.4% (±2.1 points)	82.0% (±3.0 points)	+1.6 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$1,354 (±$51)	$1,784 (±$45)	+31.8%	Up after inflation
Median household income	$74,986 (±$5,674)	$73,854 (±$4,430)	−1.5%	Down 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.
