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 36% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $72,134 to $98,045 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$6,578). 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 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.
Poverty changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (8.4% then, 7.7% now; margin ±1.9pp). 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 is within the margin, but each of the last 5 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 (27.2% then, 30.4% now; margin ±3.6pp). The newest releases lean upward: each of the last 5 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.
No vehicle fell 2.3 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 6.5% to 4.3% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.3pp). 3 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 is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed. Margins at this size are wide (low-reliability estimate); read the level, not the pace.
Disconnected youth changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (3.4% then, 6.7% now; margin ±6.2pp).

A real change beyond the survey margin; neither direction is inherently better for this metric.
Population rose about 5% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 60,731 to 63,648 - more than the combined survey margin (±97). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 19 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 4 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
Single-parent changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (19.9% then, 16.0% now; margin ±5.2pp). 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.*
