How renting in Trinity 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	43.3% (±10.9 points)	53.8% (±12.3 points)	+10.5 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$634 (±$137)	$835 (±$129)	+31.7%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$26,045 (±$7,689)	$27,717 (±$17,600)	+6.4%	No measurable change after inflation

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