The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services. Indexes are available for the U.S. and various geographic areas. Average price data for select utility, automotive fuel, and food items are also available. Prices for the goods and services used to calculate the CPI are collected in 75 urban areas throughout the country and from about 23,000 retail and service establishments. Data on rents are collected from about 43,000 landlords or tenants.

About this dataset

9The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers: All Items (CPIAUCSL) is a measure of the average monthly change in the price for goods and services paid by urban consumers between any two time periods.(1) It can also represent the buying habits of urban consumers. This particular index includes roughly 88 percent of the total population, accounting for wage earners, clerical workers, technical workers, self-employed, short-term workers, unemployed, retirees, and those not in the labor force.(1)

The CPIs are based on prices for food, clothing, shelter, and fuels; transportation fares; service fees (e.g., water and sewer service); and sales taxes. Prices are collected monthly from about 4,000 housing units and approximately 26,000 retail establishments across 87 urban areas.(1) To calculate the index, price changes are averaged with weights representing their importance in the spending of the particular group. The index measures price changes (as a percent change) from a predetermined reference date.(1) In addition to the original unadjusted index distributed, the Bureau of Labor Statistics also releases a seasonally adjusted index. The unadjusted series reflects all factors that may influence a change in prices. However, it can be very useful to look at the seasonally adjusted CPI, which removes the effects of seasonal changes, such as weather, school year, production cycles, and holidays.(1)

The CPI can be used to recognize periods of inflation and deflation. Significant increases in the CPI within a short time frame might indicate a period of inflation, and significant decreases in CPI within a short time frame might indicate a period of deflation. However, because the CPI includes volatile food and oil prices, it might not be a reliable measure of inflationary and deflationary periods. For a more accurate detection, the core CPI (Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers: All Items Less Food & Energy [CPILFESL]) is often used. When using the CPI, please note that it is not applicable to all consumers and should not be used to determine relative living costs.(1) Additionally, the CPI is a statistical measure vulnerable to sampling error since it is based on a sample of prices and not the complete average.(1)

This data is a portion of a larger dataset, composed by over 120 million data points, collected by Starsift LLC for the Grocerybear Project (www.grocerybear.com) every day between January 2017 and May 2018 for over 50,000 unique items in about 750 commercial categories for eleven US cities: Boise, Honolulu, Houston, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Orlando, Phoenix, Portland, San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington DC. This dataset is composed by 5 csv files, one for each CPI-U Entry Level Item disclosed: Apples, Bread, Butter, Cigarettes, and Coffee. Each file presents the following columns: Year, Month, Product name, Product code, City, Store Chain, Average price in the month. Store chains have been anonymized. This project also includes an R file to calculate sub-national consumer price indexes using the Time-interaction-Region Product Dummy (TiRPD) model.

Consumer price indexes (CPIs) are index numbers that measure changes in the prices of goods and services purchased or otherwise acquired by households, which households use directly, or indirectly, to satisfy their own needs and wants. In practice, most CPIs are calculated as weighted averages of the percentage price changes for a specified set, or ‘‘basket’’, of consumer products, the weights reflecting their relative importance in household consumption in some period. CPIs are widely used to index pensions and social security benefits. CPIs are also used to index other payments, such as interest payments or rents, or the prices of bonds. CPIs are also commonly used as a proxy for the general rate of inflation, even though they measure only consumer inflation. They are used by some governments or central banks to set inflation targets for purposes of monetary policy. The price data collected for CPI purposes can also be used to compile other indices, such as the price indices used to deflate household consumption expenditures in national accounts, or the purchasing power parities used to compare real levels of consumption in different countries.

In an effort to further coordinate and harmonize the collection of CPI data, the international organizations agreed that the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) would assume responsibility for the international collection and dissemination of national CPI data. Under this data collection initiative, countries are reporting the aggregate all items index; more detailed indexes and weights for 12 subgroups of consumption expenditure (according to the so-called COICOP-classification), and detailed metadata. These detailed data represent a valuable resource for data users throughout the world and this portal would not be possible without the ongoing cooperation of all reporting countries. In this effort, the OECD collects and validates the data for their member countries, including accession and key partner countries, whereas the IMF takes care of the collection of data for all other countries.

Inflation rates experienced by different groups of consumers within a country vary. This is because the prices of goods and services and the expenditure patterns of consumers differ. The published inflation rate is used for important decisions regarding the preservation of consumer purchasing power. These include the adjustment of social grants and minimum wages by government and the benchmarking of returns by investors when making investment decisions. It is thus vital that inflation is measured accurately to ensure the purchasing power of consumers is preserved. Current measures of inflation published by Stats SA are applicable to typical consumers and are not relevant to each individual. This resource supplements a study that seeks to provide a publicly available model that can be used by consumers to calculate their personal rate of inflation.

Price index of consumer goods and services is calculated on the basis of the results of:
- surveys on prices of consumer goods and services on the retail market,
- surveys on household budgets, providing data on average expenditures on consumer goods and services; these data are then used for compilation of a weight system.

Calculating price index of consumer goods and services is done on the basis of the Classification of Individual Consumption by Purpose (COICOP) adapted for the use of Harmonized Indices of Consumer Prices (HICP).

The price index of a representative in the region included in the price survey results from relating its average monthly price to an average annual price from the previous yea The all-Polish price index of a representative included in the survey is calculated as geometric mean of price indices from all regions. Calculating price indices of groups of consumer goods and services at the lowest level of weight system aggregation is done on the basis of price indices of the representatives included in price survey in a given group by using geometric mean. They are then used by applying weight system to calculate indices of higher level of aggregation up to the price index of total consumer goods and services. price index is calculated in line with the Laspeyress’s formula by applying weights from the year preceding the reference year.

This table shows the consumer price index for all households (CPI), split up into an index for frequent "out-of-pocket" purchases (FROOPP) and less frequent or "non-out-of-pocket" purchased items (non-FROOPP). Frequent purchased items are purchases that are typically done at least monthly. Out-of-pocket purchases are those that are considered to be typically paid for by the consumer directly and actively. This table also includes the monthly and yearly price developments. The FROOPP and non-FROOPP are special extracts of the CPI. The corresponding CPI weights and prices are used to calculate both indices. The segmentation used is derived from the FROOPP-classification of Eurostat. Data available from: January 2006 till December 2015 Status of the figures: The figures in this table are final. Changes as of 18 May 2016 None, this table is stopped. Changes as of 10 December 2015 On 1 October 2015, the points system for the pricing of rental homes was adjusted by the Dutch national government. As a direct consequence, rental prices of a limited number of dwellings were reduced, which had a downward effect on the average rental price. The effect of this decrease on the rental price indices and imputed rent value could not be determined in time because housing associations announced the impact of rent adjustments only in November. For this reason, the figures of the groups 04100 ‘Actual rentals for housing’ and 04200 ‘Imputed rent value’ over October 2015 have now been adjusted. The figures of the groups 061100 ‘Pharmaceutical products’, 061200 ‘Other medical products, equipment’, 072200 ‘Fuels and lubricants’ and 083000 ‘Telephone and internet services’ over the months June through September 2015 have been corrected. This has no impact on the headline indices. When will new figures be published? Not applicable.
