Broadband rose 9.2 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 83.1% to 92.2% - more than the combined survey margin (±3.4pp). 28 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started among the weakest third of similar-size cities, so some rebound is expected; still, the improvement is sustained and worth investigating.

Cost burden changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (51.4% then, 54.9% now; margin ±4.1pp). 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.*

Children without health insurance

▼ Lower is better Real improvement
Compared against How peers are chosen →

Child uninsured fell 1.8 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 6.2% to 4.3% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.6pp). 1 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started among the weakest third of similar-size cities, so some rebound is expected; still, the improvement is sustained and worth investigating.

Improving beyond the survey margin, 2015-2019 vs 2020-2024 surveys; 9 of 30 similar-size cities show a real change.
Longer view: child uninsured fell 7.9 percentage points from 2014 to 2024 (12.2% to 4.3%).
