My city was sorta a McCain-Romney-Clinton-Biden town. From 2010 to 2020, it went from majority white to majority black, became richer and more educated.

I was thinking something like

2016: Clinton +8
2020: Biden +12

Your city seems like the definition of a swing city, and it is located in the Sun Belt, and seems suburban. I'd say Bush won the city fairly comfortably in 2000/2004, but Obama won it by a fairly close margin in 2008, with Romney and Trump both winning it narrowly in 2016, and Biden winning it narrowly in 2020.

The city I had was Henrietta, NY, which is a suburb of Rochester, which went to Biden by 22 in 2020, after going to Clinton by 13 in 2016.
