The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Inequality rose about 7% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 0.40 to 0.43 - more than the combined survey margin (±0.02). 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.
SNAP changed less than the survey can measure between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys (3.6% then, 2.8% now; margin ±1.3pp).

Homeownership fell 3.4 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 78.7% to 75.2% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.4pp). 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 (23.3% then, 24.4% now; margin ±2.8pp). 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.*
