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 29% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $55,417 to $71,239 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$4,040). 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.

Child poverty fell 4.3 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 23.4% to 19.1% - more than the combined survey margin (±3.4pp). 14 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.

Beyond the survey margin, but small next to the spread across these peers.
Homeownership rose 2.9 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 55.9% to 58.7% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.3pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. 10 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Cost burden changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (33.5% then, 32.0% now; margin ±2.8pp).

No vehicle fell 2.7 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 8.4% to 5.7% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.3pp). 7 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.
Child uninsured changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (3.0% then, 3.6% now; margin ±1.6pp).

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 4.6 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 24.4% to 29.0% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.1pp). 23 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.
Preschool enrollment changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (39.6% then, 44.3% now; margin ±10.1pp). 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.*
