The U.S. CPI measures changes in the price of consumer goods and services purchased by households and is thought to reflect inflation in the U.S. as well as the health of the economy. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics calculates the CPI and defines it as, "a measure of the average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services." The BLS records the price of thousands of goods and services month by month. They consider goods and services within eight main categories: food and beverage, housing, apparel, transportation, medical care, recreation, education, and other goods and services. They aggregate the data collected in order to compare how much it would cost a consumer to buy the same market basket of goods and services within one month or one year compared with the previous month or year. Given that the CPI is used to calculate U.S. inflation, the CPI influences the annual adjustments of many financial institutions in the United States, both private and public. Wages, social security payments, and pensions are all affected by the CPI.

The Consumer Price Index of the United Kingdom was 139.8 in the fourth quarter of 2025, indicating that consumer prices have increased by 39.8 percent when compared with the first quarter of 2015. As of December 2025, the inflation rate for the CPI was 3.4 percent, an uptick from the start of 2025, when prices were rising by three percent. A long period of elevated inflation between 2021 and 2023 peaked in October 2022 and saw prices increase by over 20 percent in just three years. Uptick in inflation in 2025 In early 2025, the UK's main economic forecaster, the Office for Budget Responsibility, predicted that the annual inflation rate for 2025 would average out at around 3.2 percent. By November, however, the OBR had revised this figure upward, with annual inflation now expected to be 3.5 percent. This uptick in inflation is predicted to have peaked in the third quarter of the year at 3.9 percent, before falling to 2.4 percent by the second quarter of 2026. Although this period of higher inflation is far less severe than in 2022, it will no doubt put further pressure on households already struggling with their cost of living. Cost of living woes continue The share of UK households reporting that their cost of living was increasing has been steadily rising since Summer 2024. At that time, less than half of UK households reported rising costs, down from 91 percent two years earlier. By April 2025, however, 72 percent of households said their costs were rising, the highest figure since 2023. With elevated inflation throughout 2025, the pressure on UK households has unfortunately continued, although a crisis on the scale of 2021-2023 will hopefully be avoided.

This table contains figures on the Netherlands’ consumer price index (CPI). The CPI measures changes in the prices of goods and services purchased by households in the Netherlands for their own consumption.

The table contains the annual rates of change of the CPI from the moment they were first published. The annual rate of change of the CPI is known as the inflation. It also shows the annual rate of change of the derived CPI. This is the CPI that excludes the effect of changes in the rates of product-related taxes (e.g., VAT or excise taxes). As such, the price index approximates what the price change would be if tax rates had remained the same.

CPI figures are published every month. After the end of each calendar year, annual figures are also released. The index figure for a given calendar year is calculated as the average of the indices for the twelve months in that year.

Data available from: January 1963
