The last 12 months moved in the better direction. The multi-year trend has not (yet) passed the checks below, so no sustained-improvement claim is made. It is also improving faster than most of the selected peers.
Violent crime fell about 23% over the 12 months ending May 2026, faster than 90% of similar-size cities.

This badge answers one question: can this city's own trend be trusted as a real improvement? It is moving the right way, but at least one check failed, so not yet. It is also improving faster than most of the selected peers.
Homicide fell about 17% a year from 2021 to 2026, faster than 86% of similar-size cities. The change does not yet pass the noise and consistency checks, so treat it as a raw signal.

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 25% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $112,765 to $141,505 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$7,845). 30 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started among the stronger third of similar-size cities and kept improving; worth investigating.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is within the margin, but each of the last 3 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
Poverty changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (3.5% then, 3.9% now; margin ±1.0pp). 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.*

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is within the margin, but each of the last 4 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
Homeownership changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (75.6% then, 74.3% now; margin ±1.7pp). The newest releases lean downward: each of the last 4 annual updates moved the 5-year average the same way - an early signal, not a measured change.*

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Child uninsured changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (1.8% then, 2.9% now; margin ±1.2pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
College attainment rose 3.8 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 70.6% to 74.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±3.0pp). 20 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started among the stronger third of similar-size cities and kept improving; worth investigating.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is within the margin, but each of the last 3 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
Preschool enrollment changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (60.0% then, 72.2% now; margin ±12.6pp). 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.*
