How renting in Mila Doce 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	20.4% (±7.2 points)	18.9% (±8.2 points)	−1.5 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$573 (±$168)	$640 (±$30)	+11.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$24,583 (±$5,302)	$50,921 (±$14,165)	+107.1%	Up after inflation

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