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 24% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $48,815 to $60,767 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$4,547). 29 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.

This badge answers one question: can this city's own trend be trusted as a real improvement? It is moving the right way, but at least one check failed, so not yet. It is also improving faster than most of the selected peers.
Unemployment fell less than 0.1 percentage points a year from 2022 to 2025, faster than 100% of similar-size cities. The change does not yet pass the noise and consistency checks, so treat it as a raw signal.

Child poverty fell 7.2 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 31.9% to 24.7% - more than the combined survey margin (±4.2pp). 10 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 12.6 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 77.9% to 90.5% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.3pp). 28 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 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 (0.50 then, 0.48 now; margin ±0.03).

Beyond the survey margin, but small next to the spread across these peers.
Homeownership rose 3.7 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 67.7% to 71.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±3.6pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 9 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 3 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
Uninsured changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (27.7% then, 26.4% now; margin ±2.4pp). 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.*

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 3.5 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 25.9% to 29.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.6pp). 18 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.
