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 40% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $45,514 to $63,690 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$4,855). 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 14.7 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 75.8% to 90.5% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.1pp). 27 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.
No vehicle fell 5.8 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 20.8% to 14.9% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.5pp). 4 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.
