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 31% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $62,635 to $81,926 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$5,020). 30 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, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Child poverty rose 5.9 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 14.3% to 20.3% - more than the combined survey margin (±4.5pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 2 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction.

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 8.0 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 86.5% to 94.6% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.6pp). 29 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, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Uninsured rose 3.9 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 9.6% to 13.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.2pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 4 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. That is movement in the wrong direction.
