How renting in Stonewood 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	30.9% (±8.4 points)	28.5% (±10.5 points)	−2.4 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Median gross rent	$959 (±$83)	$749 (±$367)	−21.9%	Down after inflation
Median household income	$45,717 (±$3,679)	$54,792 (±$16,640)	+19.9%	No measurable change after inflation

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

Prices (the CPI-U, US Bureau of Labor Statistics) rose 22.7% between 2019 and 2024, so a dollar figure’s verdict compares the two after raising the earlier one by that much, using the Census Bureau’s test for a difference.
