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 $46,499 to $58,613 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$3,030). 30 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.

Moving against the better direction for this metric. Most of the selected peers are worsening faster than this city.
Unemployment is about where it was in 2022 (5.5% then, 5.5% now), but the direction has turned: after bottoming near 4.2% in 2023 it has risen each year since. That recent climb 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.
Broadband rose 12.4 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 72.7% to 85.1% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.3pp). 29 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 is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Inequality changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (0.45 then, 0.45 now; margin ±0.03).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
SNAP fell 3.8 percentage points between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys, from 31.9% to 28.1% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.9pp). That reverses the previous span, which went up between the 2009-2013 and 2014-2018 surveys. 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 is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Cost burden changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (43.2% then, 44.4% now; margin ±3.8pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Uninsured rose 1.6 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 5.4% to 7.0% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.1pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 4 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, in the wrong direction for this metric. Margins at this size are wide (low-reliability estimate); read the level, not the pace.
Child uninsured rose 2.2 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 1.3% to 3.5% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.5pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 4 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. That is movement in the wrong direction.

A real change beyond the survey margin; neither direction is inherently better for this metric.
Population rose about 2% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 72,767 to 74,223 - more than the combined survey margin (±92). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 23 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction.
