How renting in Crandon has changed since 2015–2019

	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict

Median household income	$38,409 (±$3,697)	$42,784 (±$8,471)	+11.4%	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.
