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 12% over the 12 months ending May 2026, faster than 72% 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.
Homicide was essentially flat over the 12 months ending May 2026.

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 29% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $61,026 to $78,483 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$4,425). 30 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started mid-pack and has reached a genuinely better level; worth investigating.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Poverty changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (10.3% then, 12.5% now; margin ±3.0pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
Broadband rose 9.1 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 84.5% to 93.6% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.0pp). 29 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started mid-pack and has reached a genuinely better level; worth investigating.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Cost burden rose 5.2 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 25.6% to 30.8% - more than the combined survey margin (±4.4pp). 5 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. That is movement in the wrong direction.

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 3.7 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 25.2% to 28.8% - more than the combined survey margin (±3.2pp). 12 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started among the weakest third of similar-size cities, so some rebound is expected; still, the improvement is sustained and worth investigating.
