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 21% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $76,610 to $92,968 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$2,135). 23 of the 23 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started among the stronger third of similar-size cities and kept improving; worth investigating.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Poverty rose 1.3 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 7.1% to 8.4% - more than the combined survey margin (±0.8pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. None of the 23 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 4 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
Child poverty changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (10.2% then, 11.4% now; margin ±1.3pp). The newest releases lean upward: 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 AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
Broadband rose 4.5 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 90.0% to 94.5% - more than the combined survey margin (±0.7pp). 23 of the 23 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started among the stronger third of similar-size cities and kept improving; worth investigating.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Inequality rose about 5% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 0.42 to 0.44 - more than the combined survey margin (±0.01). 3 of the 23 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.
SNAP changed less than the survey can measure between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys (6.4% then, 6.5% now; margin ±0.7pp). 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.*

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 (34.7% then, 35.2% now; margin ±1.5pp). 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.*

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
No vehicle changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (4.2% then, 4.6% now; margin ±0.5pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
Uninsured fell 1.2 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 7.2% to 6.0% - more than the combined survey margin (±0.5pp). 13 of the 23 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started among the stronger third of similar-size cities and kept improving; worth investigating.

Preschool enrollment fell 6.1 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 53.6% to 47.6% - more than the combined survey margin (±5.5pp). That reverses the previous span, which went up between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 10 of the 23 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 smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Population changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (450,201 then, 456,349 now; margin ±0).

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 (28.0% then, 30.6% now; margin ±2.6pp). The newest releases lean upward: each of the last 4 annual updates moved the 5-year average the same way - an early signal, not a measured change.*
