Share of people below the poverty level

▼ Lower is better Worsening
Compared against How peers are chosen →

Poverty rose 1.5 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 3.9% to 5.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.1pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 1 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. That is movement in the wrong direction.

Worsening beyond the survey margin, 2015-2019 vs 2020-2024 surveys; 9 of 30 similar-size cities show a real change.
Longer view: poverty rose 0.2 percentage points from 2014 to 2024 (5.2% to 5.4%).

▸ Where is this changing? 14 census tracts
Each tract is colored and ranked by its change from 2019 to 2024, between the same two survey periods as the card above, as a share of its own starting level: blue tracts rose, orange tracts fell. Tracts marked * moved less than their own survey margin, so their color is a direction, not a claim. Hover a tract for its numbers and history, or a table row to find that tract on the map; click either for its location or its data in the Explorer.
