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 33% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $43,067 to $57,272 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$4,914). 29 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. 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 (8.1% then, 4.0% now; margin ±6.5pp).

A real change beyond the survey margin; neither direction is inherently better for this metric.
Population rose about 4% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 68,024 to 70,599 - more than the combined survey margin (±2,231). 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.
