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 50% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $27,015 to $40,546 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$3,990). 30 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.

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.
Unemployment fell 2.1 percentage points over the 12 months ending May 2026, faster than 100% of similar-size cities.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Inequality changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (0.50 then, 0.48 now; margin ±0.02).

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.
SNAP changed less than the survey can measure between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys (40.1% then, 43.4% now; margin ±4.1pp). The newest releases lean upward: 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 clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Homeownership fell 4.9 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 39.3% to 34.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±3.8pp). 3 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 is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Cost burden changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (53.4% then, 50.5% now; margin ±5.0pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
No vehicle changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (34.4% then, 30.8% now; margin ±3.9pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Uninsured rose 3.2 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 11.3% to 14.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.7pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 8 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. That is movement in the wrong direction.
