Citytistics projections to 2030: each figure's own trend, blended with the typical trend across the places we rate, eased toward long-run US growth and carried forward from the latest release. The range is where 80% of places landed when we tested the same method on past releases.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Median rent | $772/mo (2024) | $980/mo | $800 to $1,190/mo | +4.0% |
| Median household income | $65,469 (2024) | $82,500 | $70,000 to $98,000 | +4.0% |
