all areas; most other goods and services priced as indicated:
M--Every month
1--January, March, May, July, September, and November.
2--February, April, June, August, October, and December.
(2) Regions defined as the four Census regions.
(3) Indexes on a December 1996 = 100 base.
(4) The "North Central" region has been renamed the "Midwest" region
by the Census Bureau. It is composed of the same geographic entities.
(5) Indexes on a December 1986 = 100 base.
(6) In addition, the following metropolitan areas are published
semiannually and appear in tables 34 and 39 of the January and
July issues of the CPI Detailed Report: Anchorage, AK; Cincinnati,
OH--KY--IN; Kansas City, MO--KS; Milwaukee--Racine, WI; Minneapolis--
St. Paul, MN--WI; Pittsburgh, PA; Port-land--Salem, OR--WA; St Louis,
MO--IL; San Diego, CA; Tampa--St. Petersburg--Clearwater, FL.
(7) Indexes on a November 1996 = 100 base.
NOTE: Local area CPI indexes are byproducts of the national CPI
program. Each local index has a smaller sample size and is, therefore,
subject to substantially more sampling and other measurement error. As
a result, local area indexes show greater volatility than the national
index, although their long-term trends are similar. Therefore, the
Bureau of Labor Statistics strongly urges users to consider adopting
the national average CPI for use in their escalator clauses. Index
applies to a month as a whole, not to any specific date.
Dash indicates data not available.
