How renting in Summit View has changed since 2015–2019

	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Households that rent	51.1% (±4.9 points)	41.0% (±7.2 points)	−10.1 percentage points	Measurable decrease
Median gross rent	$1,418 (±$73)	$1,887 (±$120)	+33.1%	No measurable change after inflation
Median household income	$73,292 (±$5,947)	$108,806 (±$22,744)	+48.5%	No measurable change after inflation

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