The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
Broadband rose 4.9 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 90.5% to 95.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.2pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is within the margin, but each of the last 3 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
SNAP changed less than the survey can measure between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys (9.4% then, 9.8% now; margin ±2.0pp). The newest releases lean upward: each of the last 3 annual updates moved the 5-year average the same way - an early signal, not a measured change.*

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Child uninsured rose 5.4 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 1.7% to 7.1% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.8pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. That is movement in the wrong direction.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is within the margin, but each of the last 4 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
College attainment changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (30.5% then, 33.0% now; margin ±2.6pp). The newest releases lean upward: each of the last 4 annual updates moved the 5-year average the same way - an early signal, not a measured change.*
