The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
Household income rose about 37% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $171,917 to $234,707 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$15,563). 30 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started among the stronger third of similar-size cities and kept improving; worth investigating.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
Poverty fell 1.9 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 5.9% to 4.0% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.3pp). That reverses the previous span, which went up between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 6 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started among the stronger third of similar-size cities and kept improving; worth investigating.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed. Margins at this size are wide (low-reliability estimate); read the level, not the pace.
Child poverty changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (3.6% then, 2.8% now; margin ±1.8pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric. Margins at this size are wide (low-reliability estimate); read the level, not the pace.
SNAP rose 1.5 percentage points between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys, from 0.2% to 1.7% - more than the combined survey margin (±0.7pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2009-2013 and 2014-2018 surveys. 3 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. That is movement in the wrong direction.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Homeownership changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (60.2% then, 60.6% now; margin ±2.7pp).

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.
No vehicle changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (4.6% then, 3.8% now; margin ±1.4pp). The newest releases lean downward: each of the last 4 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 1.4 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 1.2% to 2.6% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.3pp). 3 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. That is movement in the wrong direction.

A real change beyond the survey margin; neither direction is inherently better for this metric.
Population fell about 3% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 60,257 to 58,566 - more than the combined survey margin (±67). That reverses the previous span, which went up between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 9 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Single-parent changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (7.9% then, 6.3% now; margin ±2.9pp).
