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 34% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $63,341 to $84,746 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$4,793). 30 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started mid-pack and has reached a genuinely better level; 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 3.4 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 86.4% to 89.8% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.8pp). 27 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started mid-pack and has reached a genuinely better level; worth investigating.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Inequality rose about 8% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 0.39 to 0.42 - more than the combined survey margin (±0.02). 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.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
Uninsured fell 3.5 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 18.3% to 14.8% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.4pp). 9 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.

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 1.8 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 13.8% to 15.7% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.6pp). 20 of the 29 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.

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.
Disconnected youth rose 6.4 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 4.2% to 10.7% - more than the combined survey margin (±4.8pp). 3 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. That is movement in the wrong direction.
