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.
Inequality changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (0.49 then, 0.47 now; margin ±0.02). The newest releases lean downward: 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 smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Homeownership changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (47.4% then, 47.0% now; margin ±2.7pp).

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.
No vehicle changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (7.8% then, 6.7% now; margin ±1.8pp). The newest releases lean downward: each of the last 3 annual updates moved the 5-year average the same way - an early signal, not a measured change.*
