The last 12 months moved in the better direction. The multi-year trend has not (yet) passed the checks below, so no sustained-improvement claim is made.
Violent crime fell about 8% over the 12 months ending May 2026, faster than 50% of similar-size cities.

This badge answers one question: can this city's own trend be trusted as a real improvement? It passed all three checks, so yes. The most recent 12 months agree with the multi-year trend.
Property crime fell about 25% over the 12 months ending May 2026, faster than 89% of similar-size cities.

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 29% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $108,537 to $140,452 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$8,576). 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.
Broadband rose 2.2 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 94.5% to 96.6% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.5pp). 29 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, in the wrong direction for this metric.
SNAP rose 1.6 percentage points between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys, from 2.6% to 4.2% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.4pp). 2 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 clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
College attainment rose 6.2 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 53.6% to 59.8% - more than the combined survey margin (±3.6pp). 16 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.

Population fell about 3% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 65,808 to 64,139 - more than the combined survey margin (±87). That reverses the previous span, which went up between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 7 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction.
