What changed

Child uninsured changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (2.2% then, 1.2% now; margin ±1.1pp). 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.*
