In 2023, the U.S. Consumer Price Index was 309.42, and is projected to increase to 352.27 by 2029. The base period was 1982-84. The monthly CPI for all urban consumers in the U.S. can be accessed here. After a time of high inflation, the U.S. inflation rateis projected fall to two percent by 2027. United States Consumer Price Index ForecastIt is projected that the CPI will continue to rise year over year, reaching 325.6 in 2027. The Consumer Price Index of all urban consumers in previous years was lower, and has risen every year since 1992, except in 2009, when the CPI went from 215.30 in 2008 to 214.54 in 2009. The monthly unadjusted Consumer Price Index was 296.17 for the month of August in 2022. 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 (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. More information and details about the data provided can be found at http://www.bls.gov/cpi

Explanation of CPI and the Dataset:

What is CPI?

CPI (Consumer Price Index) measures the average change in prices over time that consumers pay for a basket of goods and services. It is a key indicator of inflation and is used by governments and central banks to monitor price stability and for inflation targeting. Components: The construction of CPI involves two main components: Weighting Diagrams: These represent the consumption patterns of households. Price Data: This is collected at regular intervals to track changes in prices.

Role of the Central Statistics Office (CSO):

The CSO, under the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation, is responsible for releasing CPI data. The indices are released for Rural, Urban, and Combined sectors for all-India and individual States/UTs.

Dataset Alignment:

Sectors: The dataset includes a "Sector" column that categorizes data into "Rural," "Urban," and "Rural+Urban," aligning with the CPI data released by the CSO. Time Period: The "Year" and "Name" (which appears to represent months) columns in the dataset track the data over time, consistent with the monthly release schedule by the CSO starting from January 2011. State/UT Data: Each column corresponding to a state or union territory likely represents the CPI values for that region. The numeric values under each state/UT column represent the CPI index values, with a base of 2010=100. Purpose: This data can be used to analyze inflation trends, price stability, and the impact on economic policies, such as adjustments to dearness allowance for employees. Practical Use of This Data: Inflation Analysis: By examining the changes in CPI values across different states, analysts can study regional inflation trends and compare them to the national average. Policy Making: Governments and central banks can use this data to design and adjust policies aimed at controlling inflation, targeting specific regions or sectors that are experiencing higher inflation. Wage Indexation: Companies and governments can use CPI data to adjust wages and allowances in line with inflation, ensuring that purchasing power is maintained.

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.

In 2020 the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rate of the United Kingdom is expected to be between *** percent and *** percent, according to forecasts from three different institutions, the Office for Budget Responsibility, the International Monetary Fund, and the The National Institute of Economic and Social Research. CPI measures the rate of change to market basket price levels of consumer goods and services purchased by households.

Graph and download economic data for Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers: Food in U.S. City Average (CPIUFDNS) from Jan 1913 to Jul 2025 about food, urban, consumer, CPI, inflation, price index, indexes, price, and USA.

The Consumer Price Index of the United Kingdom was 138.5 in the second quarter of 2025, indicating that consumer prices have increased by 38.5 percent when compared with the first quarter of 2015. As of June 2025, the inflation rate for the CPI was 3.6 percent, an uptick from March, when prices were rising by 2.6 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 expected in 2025 In late 2024, the UK's main economic forecaster, the Office for Budget Responsibility, predicted that the annual inflation rate for 2025 would average out at around 2.6 percent. In March 2025, however, the OBR revised this figure upward, with annual inflation now expected to be 3.2 percent. This uptick in inflation is predicted to peak in the third quarter of the year at 3.7 percent before falling to two percent by the second quarter of 2026. Although this period of higher inflation is predicted to be 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. As of March 2025, however, 59 percent of households said their costs were rising, the highest figure since 2023. Of these households, 93 percent reported that their food shop was increasing, with three quarters of them reporting higher energy costs. With higher inflation predicted in 2025, the pressure on UK households will likely continue, although a crisis on the scale of 2021-2023 will hopefully be avoided.

In 2019, the average inflation rate in Singapore amounted to about 0.57 percent compared to the previous year, and it seemed to recover from sliding into the red throughout 2015 and 2016. For 2030, Singapore’s inflation is expected to level off at around 1.97 percent. Singapore’s economy in shortSingapore is a prospering, highly developed economy, relying heavily on its role as an intermediary port for transport and storage of goods and merchandise. The lion’s share of its GDP is generated by the services sector, mainly by financial services, oil-refining, and manufacturing. Tourism is also an important contributor. It is one of the leading economies in Asia with one of the highest GDPs in the ASEAN region. The great slump of 2015 to 2016As dramatic as it looks, there was no definite reason for Singapore’s inflation rate to drop below zero in 2015 and 2016. A slump in economic growth and oil prices, as well as a low consumer price index were most likely responsible for inflation taking a hit in those years. Singapore has since recovered and continues its success story as one of the leading economies in the East.

In 2024, the average annual inflation rate in China ranged at around 0.2 percent compared to the previous year. For 2025, projections by the IMF expect slightly negative inflation. The monthly inflation rate in China dropped to negative values in the first quarter of 2025. Calculation of inflation The inflation rate is calculated based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for China. The CPI is computed using a product basket that contains a predefined range of products and services on which the average consumer spends money throughout the year. Included are expenses for groceries, clothes, rent, power, telecommunications, recreational activities, and raw materials (e.g. gas, oil), as well as federal fees and taxes. The product basked is adjusted every five years to reflect changes in consumer preference and has been updated in 2020 for the last time. The inflation rate is then calculated using changes in the CPI. As the inflation of a country is seen as a key economic indicator, it is frequently used for international comparison. China's inflation in comparison Among the main industrialized and emerging economies worldwide, China displayed comparatively low inflation in 2023 and 2024. In previous years, China's inflation ranged marginally above the inflation rates of established industrialized powerhouses such as the United States or the European Union. However, this changed in 2021, as inflation rates in developed countries rose quickly, while prices in China only increased moderately. According to IMF estimates for 2024, Zimbabwe was expected to be the country with the highest inflation rate, with a consumer price increase of about 561 percent compared to 2023. In 2023, Turkmenistan had the lowest price increase worldwide with prices actually decreasing by about 1.7 percent.

Child Protective Investigations (CPI) is authorized to investigate abuse and neglect allegedly committed by a person responsible for a child's care, custody or welfare and to protect abused and neglected children from further harm. This authorization is derived from the U.S. Social Securities Act, Texas Family Code, Human Resources Code, Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act, Indian Child Welfare Act and the Adam Walsh Act.

CPI conducts either a traditional investigation or Alternative Response (AR). Both require CPI to assess safety and take needed actions to protect a child and assess the risk of future abuse or neglect in the foreseeable future. AR, however, allows for a more flexible, family engaging approach on lower priority cases involving alleged victims who are age 6 or older. AR differs from traditional investigations in that there is no substantiation of allegations, no entry of perpetrators into the Central Registry (a repository for reports of child abuse and neglect), and there a heightened focus on guiding the family to plan for safety in a way that works for them and therefore sustains the safety.

Completed investigations only include those cases conducted as a traditional investigation that were not administratively closed or merged into another stage. An investigation can only be administratively closed if all allegations have a disposition of administrative closure. A completed investigation can include more than one alleged victim. Completed investigations do not include any Alternative Response cases. A description of Alternative Response and how it differs from a traditional investigation is in the glossary.

FOOTNOTES An investigation represents a report of abuse or neglect and can involve multiple children.

The data on completed investigations does not include investigative stages that were administratively closed or merged into another investigation.

All completed investigations have a case disposition and a risk finding.

As of April 2023, the monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI) for food and non-alcoholic beverages in urban areas in Egypt rose to 201.2 points. In the month before, the index was at 196.9 points. Since December 2021, the food prices in urban areas have seen a sharp increase. Moreover, Egypt is the largest wheat importer in the world with Russia and Ukraine being responsible for almost 85 percent of its imports. In light with the Russia-Ukraine war, the prices of wheat have increased and are expected to increase further.

Inflation is an important measure of any country’s economy, and the Retail Price Index (RPI) is one of the most widely used indicators in the United Kingdom, with the rate expected to be 4.1 percent in 2025, compared with 3.6 percent in 2024. This followed 2022, when RPI inflation reached a rate of 11.6 percent, by far the highest annual rate during this provided time period. CPI vs RPI Although the Retail Price Index is a commonly utilized inflation indicator, the UK also uses a newer method of calculating inflation, the Consumer Price Index. The CPI, along with the CPIH (Consumer Price Index including owner occupiers' housing costs) are usually preferred by the UK government, but the RPI is still used in certain instances. Increases in rail fares for example, are calculated using the RPI, while increases in pension payments are calculated using CPI, when this is used as the uprating factor. The use of one inflation measure over the other can therefore have a significant impact on people’s lives in the UK. High inflation falls to more typical levels by 2024 Like the Retail Price Index, the Consumer Price Index inflation rate also reached a recent peak in October 2022. In that month, prices were rising by 11.1 percent and did not fall below double figures until April 2023. This fall was largely due to slower price increases in key sectors such as energy, which drove a significant amount of the 2022 wave of inflation. Inflation nevertheless remains elevated, fueled not only by high food inflation, but also by underlying core inflation. As of February 2025, the overall CPI inflation rate was 2.8 percent, although an uptick in inflation is expected later in the year, with a rate of 3.7 percent forecast for the third quarter of the year.

Since 1981, the ISPF has been responsible for the calculation of the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which is the instrument for measuring inflation in French Polynesia. This official statistical indicator reflects the increase, fall or stability of prices from one month to another, or over 12 slippery months. It is used as a reference index when reviewing contracts (rents, maintenance, etc.) and to fix the amount of the SMIG. Its calculation is standardised and comes from the collection of numerous prices of products and services, of constant quality, in the territory. Hybrid indexes are linear compositions of elementary indices derived from the consumer price index and/or building and public works indexes. In some cases, the basic indices are complemented by very specific collections to monitor significant budget items not otherwise represented. Since 1981, the ISPF has been responsible for calculating the construction indexes, which reflect the evolution of the burden on construction companies and are used in the revision and updating of public procurement prices. Their calculation is based on the combination of the prices of different types of goods and services according to the division of burdens on an activity. These charges are divided into four major sub-assemblies: — wage and social charges; — energy-related loads; — loads related to the building materials used; — charges related to miscellaneous operating products and services.

In 2024, Poland had an inflation rate of 3.72 percent compared to the previous year. Inflation is the rate at which the average price level of selected goods and services in an economy increases over a period of time, and therefore indicates a loss in purchasing power of the local currency. Poland’s economy in the fast lane Poland’s low inflation rate encourages fiscal responsibility on the part of the consumers and coupled with a strong growth in gross domestic product (GDP), the country’s economy is one of the fastest growing in the EU. Over 56 percent of Poland’s GDP comes from its services sector, which had an increase in its business confidence index over the last few years - another indicator of an economy on the rise. Poland and Germany in the EU Poland’s biggest import and export partner is its neighbor, Germany. Both countries are influential members of the European Union, a political and economic institution with about 16 percent of the worldwide GDP. They are both among the ten most populous countries of the EU, together claiming over a 100 million of the 512 million inhabitants in the EU.
