How renting in Leon Valley 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	40.7% (±4.1 points)	45.6% (±5.4 points)	+4.9 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$914 (±$74)	$1,187 (±$71)	+29.9%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$55,777 (±$6,297)	$59,481 (±$3,561)	+6.6%	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.
