Child poverty rose 3.5 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 2.7% to 6.2% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.5pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. None 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; 7 of 30 similar-size cities show a real change.
