How rent in Oregon has changed since 2015–2019

2015–2019 and 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimates
	2015–2019	2020–2024	Amount of change	Verdict
Median gross rent	$879 (±$67)	$1,221 (±$66)	+38.9%	Up after inflation
Households that rent	27.9% (±4.3 points)	27.6% (±5.4 points)	−0.3 percentage points	Not a measurable change
Rental vacancy rate	0.0% (±1.5 points)	5.8% (±6.5 points)	+5.8 percentage points	Not a measurable change

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.

The two periods do not overlap, as the Census Bureau recommends for 5-year estimates.
