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 (37.0% then, 36.6% now; margin ±4.0pp).

Cost burden fell 6.7 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 56.6% to 50.0% - more than the combined survey margin (±4.4pp).

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.
Uninsured changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (16.6% then, 15.4% now; margin ±1.7pp). The newest releases lean downward: each of the last 3 annual updates moved the 5-year average the same way - an early signal, not a measured change.*

Population fell about 8% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 65,716 to 60,690 - more than the combined survey margin (±2,987). That reverses the previous span, which went up between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys.

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.
Single-parent changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (42.5% then, 48.5% now; margin ±6.9pp). 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.*
