Compared against How peers are chosen →

Cost burden rose 3.4 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 35.1% to 38.5% - more than the combined survey margin (±3.1pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 5 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. That is movement in the wrong direction.

Children without health insurance

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

Child uninsured rose 2.7 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 4.3% to 7.0% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.4pp). 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.

Worsening beyond the survey margin, 2015-2019 vs 2020-2024 surveys; 10 of 30 similar-size cities show a real change.
Longer view: child uninsured fell 3.9 percentage points from 2014 to 2024 (10.8% to 7.0%).

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.
