By bedroom — raw Census medians for current renters, not adjusted to today’s asking rents:
Estimate (2023 ACS 5-year data), based on the Census block group containing H & H Mills Addition To Stanton. 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.
