An insightful analysis as usual. Thanks for the write up. I wish you would tell us more about who is causing these problems.

I would have liked to see your last two figures binned by income percentiles rather than raw incomes. I was wondering about the distribution of incomes (2022 was a lot less comfortable for <10k and about the same as other years for 150k) what does this mean in terms of quantities of people struggling? But overall I enjoyed this post, great job!
