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 44% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $47,695 to $68,761 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$3,723). 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 change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
Broadband rose 7.7 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 84.6% to 92.3% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.8pp). 27 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 AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
College attainment rose 4.6 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 17.8% to 22.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.3pp). 22 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.

A real change beyond the survey margin; neither direction is inherently better for this metric.
Population fell about 1% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 62,077 to 61,499 - more than the combined survey margin (±73). That reverses the previous span, which went up between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 7 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction.

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.
Single-parent changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (37.6% then, 43.1% now; margin ±7.7pp). 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.*
