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 (0.57 then, 0.56 now; margin ±0.01).

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 5.6 percentage points between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys, from 31.1% to 25.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.0pp). That reverses the previous span, which went up between the 2009-2013 and 2014-2018 surveys.

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 (56.3% then, 54.7% now; margin ±1.9pp).
