What changed

Child uninsured changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (5.0% then, 2.6% now; margin ±2.8pp). 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.*

Broader trend
24% of similar-size cities show a real change in either direction.

Child uninsured fell 3.4 percentage points from 2014 to 2024 (6.0% to 2.6%).

Each tract is colored and ranked by its change from 2019 to 2024, between the same two survey periods as the card above, as a share of its own starting level: blue tracts rose, orange tracts fell. Tracts marked * moved less than their own survey margin, so their color is a direction, not a claim.
