How renting in Hudson 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	48.5% (±6.9 points)	68.1% (±9.4 points)	+19.6 percentage points	Measurable increase
Median gross rent	$811 (±$70)	$1,114 (±$45)	+37.4%	Up after inflation
Median household income	$50,405 (±$14,020)	$46,406 (±$11,153)	−7.9%	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.
