	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	15.6% (±6.1 points)	22.2% (±9.4 points)	+6.6 percentage points	Not a measurable change

Median household income	$83,326 (±$17,282)	$96,475 (±$5,727)	+15.8%	No measurable change after inflation

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