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 27% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $36,557 to $46,354 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$4,732). 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 26.4 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 61.9% to 88.3% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.6pp). 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 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 (0.48 then, 0.52 now; margin ±0.04).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
SNAP rose 3.5 percentage points between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys, from 22.3% to 25.8% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.9pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2009-2013 and 2014-2018 surveys. 6 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. That is movement in the wrong 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.
Cost burden changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (31.9% then, 36.1% now; margin ±4.3pp). The newest releases lean upward: each of the last 3 annual updates moved the 5-year average the same way - an early signal, not a measured change.*
