What changed

Household income rose about 32% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $13,161 to $17,410 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$1,401). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys.

Broader trend
All similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. Mayagüez zona urbana started among the weakest third of similar-size cities, so some rebound is expected; still, the improvement is sustained and worth investigating.
Longer view
Household income rose about 19% from 2014 to 2024 ($14,632 to $17,410).
