Cost burden changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (40.2% then, 43.6% now; margin ±4.6pp). 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.*

Within the survey margin, 2015-2019 vs 2020-2024 surveys; 8 of 30 similar-size cities show a real change.

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. Hover a tract for its numbers and history, or a table row to find that tract on the map; click either for its location or its data in the Explorer.
