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 (0.43 then, 0.44 now; margin ±0.01).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
SNAP fell 1.3 percentage points between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys, from 11.7% to 10.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.0pp).

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.
Homeownership changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (55.2% then, 54.3% now; margin ±1.2pp). The newest releases lean downward: 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.
Cost burden rose 5.5 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 34.0% to 39.6% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.9pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 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.
Uninsured changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (18.3% then, 19.0% now; margin ±1.0pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Child uninsured rose 1.8 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 11.3% to 13.1% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.5pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. That is movement in the wrong direction.
