How renting in Lampasas 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	38.7% (±5.1 points)	36.5% (±6.9 points)	−2.2 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$736 (±$43)	$961 (±$103)	+30.6%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$47,010 (±$6,022)	$67,229 (±$10,797)	+43.0%	No measurable change after inflation

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