Estimate (2023 ACS 5-year data), based on city/township-wide Census data, widened until there were enough renting households to measure, so it describes a larger area than B.F.Mcreynolds Sub. alone. Adjusted toward what is being asked today using HUD Fair Market Rents, because the Census figure counts every household already renting — including long-tenured ones paying below current market. Rent figures are rounded to the nearest $25 — the underlying estimates are not precise enough to read closer than that. The ownership figure is the monthly payment only: it excludes maintenance and closing costs, and it doesn't count the equity a payment builds. Renting has no down payment. Both are estimates, not quotes.
