	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	37.6% (±6.8 points)	14.4% (±4.2 points)	−23.2 percentage points	Measurable decrease

Median household income	$50,553 (±$4,595)	$68,786 (±$5,785)	+36.1%	No measurable change after inflation

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