US Consumer Price Index for All Urban
Consumers
Download (xls)
(pdf)
| 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. The CPI-U (for All Urban Consumers) represents
about 87 percent of the total U.S. population. It is based on the
expenditures of almost all residents of urban or metropolitan areas,
including professionals, the self-employed, the poor, the unemployed
and retired persons as well as urban wage earners and clerical
workers. Not included in the CPI are the spending patterns of persons
living in rural non-metropolitan areas, farm families, persons in the
Armed Forces, and those in institutions, such as prisons and mental
hospitals.
How
to use the Consumer Price Index for Escalation, from the Bureau of
Labor Statistics.
