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 $65,745 to $82,212 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$6,065).

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. Ann Arbor is also improving faster than most of the selected peers.
Unemployment fell 0.5 percentage points over the 12 months ending July 2026, faster than 85% of similar-size cities.

Poverty changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (22.3% then, 23.8% now; margin ±1.7pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Child poverty rose 3.4 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 9.8% to 13.2% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.9pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. That is movement in the wrong direction.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Cost burden rose 4.0 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 37.4% to 41.3% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.7pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. That is movement in the wrong direction.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Child uninsured rose 1.4 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 1.1% to 2.5% - more than the combined survey margin (±0.9pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. That is movement in the wrong direction.
