	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	21.7% (±2.5 points)	19.3% (±2.9 points)	−2.4 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$1,968 (±$99)	$2,515 (±$148)	+27.8%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$132,034 (±$7,455)	$164,123 (±$9,683)	+24.3%	No measurable change after inflation

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