Price Statistics

The Consumer Price Index (CPI), one of the most important economic indicators, measures the average change over time in the prices paid by consumers for a representative basket of goods and services. Published monthly, the CPI is the principal measure of inflation and changes in the cost of living. These statistics support evidence-based policy decisions, wage and income adjustments, business planning, and economic research.

Consumer Price Statistics include the Consumer Price Index (CPI), monthly and annual inflation rates, food and non-food inflation, and price indices by expenditure group and region.
