How renting in Silver Firs 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	9.8% (±2.7 points)	10.9% (±3.9 points)	+1.1 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$2,054 (±$188)	$2,881 (±$212)	+40.3%	Up after inflation
Median household income	$131,337 (±$7,702)	$163,418 (±$12,985)	+24.4%	No measurable change after inflation

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