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 26% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $77,270 to $97,201 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$5,903). 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 1.8 percentage points between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys, from 5.0% to 6.8% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.5pp). 6 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 is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
No vehicle changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (5.8% then, 6.2% now; margin ±1.6pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is within the margin, but each of the last 3 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
Uninsured changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (6.3% then, 6.0% 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.*

Child uninsured fell 2.0 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 4.0% to 2.0% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.4pp). 7 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.
Disconnected youth rose 4.7 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 4.9% to 9.6% - more than the combined survey margin (±4.4pp). 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 is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Population changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (86,090 then, 86,165 now; margin ±96).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is within the margin, but each of the last 3 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
Single-parent changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (23.4% then, 28.0% now; margin ±4.9pp). The newest releases lean upward: each of the last 3 annual updates moved the 5-year average the same way - an early signal, not a measured change.*

A real change beyond the survey margin; neither direction is inherently better for this metric.
Working parents fell 12.6 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 68.9% to 56.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±9.5pp). 1 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction.
