Grocery store food prices decreased 0.5 percent in January, follow ing a 1.0-percent increase in December. The decelera tion reflects a sharp downturn in the index fo r fruits and vegetables, which declined 2.6 percent in January, fo llo w ing a 5.3-percent rise in December. The index fo r fresh fruits and vegetables decreased 4.3 percent, more than offsetting a 1.0-percent increase in the index fo r processed fruits and vegetables. Each o f the other major grocery store food groups showed little movement in January, w ith the changes rang ing between negative and positive 0.2 percent. The index fo r cereal and bakery products fe ll 0.2 percent, w hile the in dexes fo r meats, poultry, fish, and eggs, fo r dairy products, and fo r other food at home each increased. The index fo r meats, poultry, fish, and eggs turned up in January as an increase in meat prices more than offset declines in the prices fo r poultry, eggs, and fish and seafood. Beef and pork prices, each o f which declined in 1994, rose 0.5 and 1.3 percent, respectively. The other two components o f the food and bev erage index— restaurant meals and alcoholic beverages— each rose 0.1 percent in January. The housing component increased 0.4 percent in January, follow ing no change in December. Each o f the three major The Consumer Price Index fo r A ll Urban Consumers (CPIU) rose 0.4 percent before seasonal adjustment in January to a level o f 150.3 (1982-84=100). For the 12-month period ended in January, the CPI-U increased 2.8 percent. The Consumer Price Index fo r Urban Wage Earners and C lerical Workers (CPI-W ) increased 0.4 percent in Janu ary, prior to seasonal adjustment. The January 1995 CPIW level o f 147.8 was 2.9 percent higher than the index in January 1994. CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI-U rose 0.3 per cent in January, follow ing increases o f 0.1 and 0.2 percent in the 2 preceding months. In January, the index fo r food declined 0.3 percent, follow ing an advance o f 0.8 percent in December. Energy costs, which declined slightly in De cember, increased 0.3 percent in January. Excluding food and energy, the CPI-U increased 0.4 percent, follow ing a 0.1-percent rise in December. The acceleration in January reflects a larger rise in shelter costs and upturns in the in dexes fo r apparel co m m o d itie s, a irlin e fares, and housefumishings, each o f which had declined throughout most o f the second h alf o f 1994.

(As o f January, the proportion o f 1995 models in the index was about 80 percent o f the new car sample.) Autom obile finance charges continued to in crease sharply, advancing 4.0 percent in January and 27.4 percent in the last 12 months. Used car prices also contin ued to rise sharply, advancing 2.6 percent in January and 11.4 percent since January 1994. The index fo r apparel and upkeep, which registered de clines throughout most o f the second h a lf o f 1994, turned up in January, increasing 0.7 percent. Smaller than usual dis counts on fall-w inter clothing in January, resulting from sub stantial discounting earlier in the season were responsible for the January increase. (Prior to seasonal adjustment, cloth ing prices fe ll 0.9 percent in January.) M edical care costs rose 0.3 percent in January to a level 4.9 percent higher than a year earlier. The index fo r medi cal care commodities— prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and medical supplies— was unchanged in January. The index fo r medical care services rose 0.4 percent in Janu ary. Charges fo r professional services and hospital and re lated services increased 0.3 and 0.2 percent, respectively. Entertainment costs increased 0.4 percent in January, fo l low ing a 0.1-percent rise in December. The indexes fo r toys and sporting goods and equipment and fo r fees fo r club mem berships and fo r instructions, which declined in December, turned up in January. The index fo r other goods and services was unchanged in January. The index fo r tobacco and smoking products fe ll 1.3 percent. (Prior to seasonal adjustment, tobacco prices rose 0.1 percent.) An increase in the index fo r personal and educational expenses, in particular, fo r prices o f school books and supplies offset the drop in the tobacco index. housing groups contributed to the acceleration. Shelter costs, which increased 0.1 percent in December, advanced 0.3 per cent in January. W ithin shelter, renters’ costs rose 0.2 per cent; homeowners’ costs, 0.4 percent; and maintenance and repair costs, 0.3 percent. The index fo r fuel and other u tili ties, which declined 0.2 percent in December, increased 0.5 percent in January. The index fo r household fuels rose 0.2 percent, as increases in the indexes fo r fuel o il and electric ity — up 0.6 and 0.7 percent, respectively— more than offset a 0.8-percent decline in the index fo r natural gas. The index for other u tilities and public services rose 1.0 percent in Janu ary, reflecting a sharp increase in the index fo r telephone services. These charges rose 1.3 percent in January as a 2.7percent increase in local telephone call charges more than offset a 4.8-percent drop in charges for intrastate to ll calls. Charges for cable television, which had declined throughout most o f 1994 before turning up in November, rose 0.7 per cent in January. The index for household furnishings and operation, which was unchanged in December, increased 0.8 percent in January, its largest monthly advance since Febru ary 1991. Contributing to the January increase was a 10.3percent rise in postage fees. The transportation index advanced 0.6 percent in Janu ary, follow ing an increase o f 0.2 percent in December. Pub lic transportation costs, which declined 2.3 percent in De cember, rose 1.2 percent in January, reflecting an upturn in airline fares. The index fo r airline fares rose 2.2 percent in January, follow ing declines in each o f the last 4 months o f 1994 totaling 10.8 percent. Private transportation costs rose 0.5 percent in January, the same as in December. The index for motor fuels rose 0.4 percent in January. (Prior to sea sonal adjustment, gasoline prices declined 1.8 percent.) The increase o f 0.1 percent in the index fo r new cars continues 2 C P I-U 1 2 -m o n th c h a n g e s , 1 9 8 5 to p r e s e n t Percent 1985 Percent 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 3 1991 1992 1993 1994 Intervention Analysis in Seasonal Adjustment Seasonal adjustment is the process by which the typical seasonal movement o f prices fo r goods or services in a Consumer Price Index series is quantified and factored out o f the series. This process permits analysis o f nonseasonal price movements. CPI series use the X-11-AR IM A (1988) program developed by Statistics Canada to calculate factors fo r seasonal adjustm ent o f both h isto rica l and current series. Some CPI series are adjusted using Intervention A n a lysis Seasonal A d ju stm e n t in c o n ju n ctio n w ith X-11-AR IM A seasonal adjustment. Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment is a technique used to produce better seasonal adjustment. The technique allows nonseasonal economic phenomena such as level shifts to be factored out o f the indexes before adjustment. A level shift is a change (or shift) in the price level o f a CPI series occurring over 1 or several months caused by events such as a sales tax increase or o il embargo. The result is an ad justm ent based on a representation o f the series w ith the seasonal pattern emphasized. Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment also allows fo r seasonal shifts to be accounted for, resulting in a better seasonal adjustment in the periods before and after the shift occurred. When Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment is used in conjunction w ith X -11-A R IM A seasonal adjustment, the unusual events are modeled before the seasonal adjustment is done. Prior-adjustm ent factors from the Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustm ent are calculated and applied using the prior-adjustment option o f X-11-AR IM A. For a more comprehensive discussion o f Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment, please see “ Improvements in CPI Pro cedures” in the M arch 1990 issue o f the CPI Detailed Report. In January 1995, the series listed below were adjusted using Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustm ent before X-11-A R IM A processing. These series were examined us ing an 8-year span from 1987 to 94.

In those areas required to sell the reform ulated gasoline, v irtu a lly a ll o f the January price quotes were fo r reformulated gasoline. A quality adjustment has been made to gasoline prices used in the January CPI to account fo r the effects o f the mandated introduction o f reformulated gasoline in selected areas o f the United States. The gasoline index rose 0.4 per cent in January, follow ing seasonal adjustment. W ithout the T e c h n ic a l Im p r o v e m e n t s improved. Second, additional BLS research indicated that the prior procedures, both fo r residential rent and fo r own ers’ im p lic it rent, tended to understate the short-term rent change. Beginning w ith data fo r January 1995, BLS has in corporated an improved estimate. Research on this issue w ill continue during the course o f the upcoming CPI revision, and, i f this research yields further improvements in the esti mates o f rent changes, they w ill be incorporated into the index as part o f the revision effort. Finally, the procedure fo r handling the introduction into the index o f generic versions o f form erly patented drugs into the index has been changed. The prior practice o f di rectly comparing the prices o f patented and generic drugs only when the patented drug is no longer available in the sampled outlet has been changed. A new procedure, which reflects the rate at which consumers switch their purchases from patented to generic versions o f a drug, has been em ployed beginning w ith CPI data fo r January 1995. The basic research papers on these topics are available from BLS by calling (202) 606-7000. These changes are explained more fu lly in the CPI Detailed Report fo r Octo ber 1994. Effective w ith the release o f data fo r January 1995, the Bureau o f Labor Statistics introduced several technical im provements in the calculation o f the Consumer Price Index designed to make the index a more accurate measure o f price change. These improvements, which stem from findings o f research conducted by BLS staff, affected the food at home, shelter, and prescription drug components o f the CPI. The change to the food at home component improved the outlet sample rotation process. (Approxim ately 20 percent o f CPI outlet samples are updated annually.) Em pirical evi dence had established that the prior procedures fo r the rou tine introduction o f new samples tended to overstate price change fo r the newly sampled items immediately follow ing their introduction. Because the food at home component o f the index is particularly sensitive to this effect, new mea sures designed to lessen its impact have been introduced in the calculation o f the food at home component beginning with January 1995 data. In addition, two changes have been made in the way in which the shelter component o f the CPI is calculated. First, the im putation form ula fo r estimating owners’ equivalent rent, which relies upon a matching o f a sample o f residen tia l rental units to a sample o f homeowner units, has been 8 Response Rates for the Consumer Price Indexes, 1994 Joseph Pavalone This article and the accompanying tables update in fo r mation previously published on response rates in the CPI Detailed Report fo r March 1991, January 1992, 1993, and 1994. In an effort to measure the outcome o f data collection for the CPI, BLS calculates response rates. Response rates mea sure the proportion o f completed surveys to those issued and help measure the accuracy o f the CPI. Failure o f a data unit to respond at either the data collection stage or estima tion stage represents a loss o f statistical inform ation which dilutes the accuracy o f the sample. BLS publishes response rates annually to assist the data user in judging the accuracy o f CPI data. Response rates are calculated fo r the CPI-U at the data collection phase fo r initiation and pricing, and at the data estimation phase fo r pricing. The response rate at the data collection phase is the number o f responding sample units divided by the number o f eligible sample units. A sample unit is eligible if it belongs to the defined target population and if it should provide inform ation fo r one or more items. The response rate at estimation is defined as the number o f sample units used in estimation divided by the number o f eligible sample units. Response rates fo r 1994 are presented in tables R -l through R-17. Table R -l shows response rates fo r all data included in the CPI-U, U.S. city average, by major group, fo r all o f 1994. Tables R-2 through R -l6 show rates fo r cur rent data collection in selected areas fo r which indexes are published monthly and bimonthly. The response rates in tables R -l through R -l6 are sepa rated into commodities and services, and the shelter portion o f housing. Commodities and services are further broken down into outlets and quotes. An “ outlet” is a generic term that designates the place where prices are collected. A “ quote” is a specific item to be priced in a specific outlet. There may be from 1 to more than 50 quotes priced in each outlet. In table R -l, it is im portant to note the relatively low percentages o f quotes reported, collected, and used in esti mation fo r apparel and upkeep. Low rates fo r these items can be partially attributed to the design o f the apparel sample. Because seasonal apparel items commonly are in stores only during certain times o f the year, most o f the apparel sample is doubled, w ith each h a lf o f the sample designated fo r pric ing during part o f the year. Thus, at any particular time o f the year, a large number o f apparel quotes, although e li gible, are designated out o f season and are not collected. The shelter section in tables R -l through R - l6 includes categories fo r owners, renters, and those fo r whom the ten ure status is unknown. A unit qualifies as an owner or renter unit if its tenure status is known either by previous know l edge or is collected in the current interview period. The response rates at the data collection phase fo r shelter are separated into three categories. I f useable inform ation is obtained, the unit is designated data reported. I f the assigned unit is located but is unoccupied, the unit is designatedfound vacant. In instances where the unit is eligible but no data are available (fo r example, refusals or no one at home) the unit is designated other.

An in crease of 7 percent, for example, is shown as 107.0. This change can also be expressed in dollars as follows: the price of a base period “market basket” of goods and services in the CPI has risen from $100 in 1982-84 to $107. For further details see BLS Handbook of Methods, BLS Bulletin 2414, September 1992. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the average change in prices over time in a fixed market basket of goods and services. The Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes CPI’s for two population groups: (1) a CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) which covers approximately 80 percent of the total population and (2), a CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) which covers 32 per cent of the total population. The CPI-U includes, in addition to wage earners and clerical workers, groups such as profes sional, managerial, and technical workers, the selfemployed, short-term workers, the unemployed, and retirees and others not in the labor force. The CPI is based on prices of food, clothing, shelter, fuels, transportation fares, charges for doctors’ and dentists’ services, medicine, and the other goods that people buy for day-to-day living. Prices are collected in 85 urban areas across the country from about 57,000 housing units and approximately 19,000 retail establishments—department stores, supermarkets, hospitals, gasoline stations and other types of stores and services establishments. All taxes direct ly associated with the purchase and use of items are included in the index. Prices of food, fuel, and and a few other items are obtained every month in all 85 locations. Prices of most other commodities and services are collected every month in the five largest geographic areas and every other month in other areas. Prices of most goods and services are obtained by either personal visits or telephone calls from the Bureau’s trained representatives. Some data, such as used car prices, are obtained from secondary sources. In calculating the index, price changes for the various items in each location are averaged together with weights which represent their importance in the spending of the ap propriate population group. Local data are then combined to obtain a U.S. city average. Separate indexes are also pub lished by size of city, by region of country, for cross-classifications of regions and population-size classes, and for 29 local areas. Area indexes do not measure differences in the level of prices among cities, they only measure the average change in prices for each area since the base period. Calculating Index Changes Movements of the indexes from one month to another are usually expressed as percent changes rather than changes in index points, because index point changes are affected by the level of the index in relation to its base period while per cent changes are not. The example in the accompanying box illustrates the computation of index point and percent changes. Percent changes for 3-month and 6-month periods are expressed as annual rates and are computed according to the standard formula for compound growth rates. These data in dicate what the percent change would be if the current rate were maintained for a 12-month period. Index point change CPI Less previous index Equals index point change 112.5 108.5 4.0 Percent change Index point difference Divided by the previous index Equals Results multiplied by one hundred Equals percent change 235 4.0 108.5 0.037 0.037 x 100 3.7 Energy Prices Natural gas and electricity. Natural gas prices are reported Prices are usually available for the U.S. city average, 15 large metropolitan areas, the four census regions, four size classifications, and 13 areas reflecting the four Census re gions cross-classified by the four population sizes. However, not all energy commodities and services are used in every area of the country. Fuel oil, for example, is not a common heating fuel in some urban areas, particularly in the South and West. Where no average prices are available, the desig nation NA appears. This designation also appears if the data sufficiency criteria have not been met in any given month. For example, if there are fewer than five usable fuel oil prices for a published city or region size class, no fuel oil prices for the area will be published. All prices are collected monthly by BLS representatives in the urban areas priced for the CPI. Prices for natural gas and electricity include fuel and purchased gas adjustments and all applicable taxes. Fuel oil and gasoline prices include applicable Federal, State, and local taxes. in therms, which are a measure of heating value. Electricity prices are given in kilowatt hours (kwh). For both utility ser vices, the consumption ranges specified in table P2 are the upper and lower limits of the bill sizes priced for the Con sumer Price Index. The average prices per therm and per kilowatt hour are calculated from bills priced within these ranges. It should be noted that bills priced for the CPI are not only for different consumption amounts, but may also be cal culated from different types of residential rate schedules. The average price per therm and per kilowatt hour are not, therefore, generally suitable for use in place-to-place price comparisons. The average prices for 40 and 100 therms of natural gas for 500 kilowatt hours of electricity (table PI) are calculated from a special price collection program. They are not used in the calculation of the CPI. Since heating and air-condi tioning requirements vary by geographic location, climate, and weather conditions, it cannot be inferred that these con sumption amounts represent those used by a typical residen Census Regions 236 tial consumer. These bills are used merely to track price changes over time for constant amounts of consumption, and to provide continuity with prices of natural gas and electric ity formerly published in conjunction with the unrevised Consumer Price Index. change in quality resulting from the effect of aging on rental housing. In January 1987, the Bureau announced its inten tion to begin making such adjustments, assuming that fur ther research substantiated the need to do so. The decision to implement the adjustment was based on extensive BLS re search, in which alternative adjustment methods were ex plored and tested. Evaluation of the research indicates that an aging effect exists, and that the chosen method is opera tionally feasible.1The adjustment affect CPI shelter indexes, which would have been raised by 0.2 percent for the year 1987 had an aging adjustment been applied. The quality of housing unit decreases as the unit ages. Ex isting BLS methods are used to correct for relatively easily measured quality changes such as the addition of an extra bedroom, but such methods are inadequate to correct for de terioration in the condition of housing unit.2 The aging adjustment method was specifically designed to correct for quality changes associated with this deteriora tion. The BLS used hedonic regression methods to estimate the aging effect. The estimates were then used to correct the CPI rent and rental equivalence indexes. Hedonic regressions are statisti cal functions that relate the price of a good to its attributes or characteristics. For example, a hedonic regression relates a housing unit’s rent to its size, age, location, etc. By using BLS housing survey data from 1987 and Census data from 1980, hedonic regression methods provided estimates of the relationship between a housing unit’s rent and age while oth er housing unit characteristics were held constant. The esti mated relationship was then used to construct the aging ad justment. Estimates will be recomputed annually by using the previous year’s BLS housing survey data and the most recently available Census data. Fuel o il Only #2 fuel oil (home heating oil) is priced. Prices are collected, in most cases, for quantities greater than one gallon. These prices are converted to a gallon price for this program. Fuel oil prices reflect discounts for quantity and/or quick payment. Gasoline. Gasoline prices are collected at the pump from a sample of full service, mini-service, and self-serve gas stations. Approximate British Termal Unit (BTU) values for some energy items are as follows, according to the source indicated: 1 therm = 100,000 BTU’s (U.S. Department of Energy). 1 kwh = 3,412 BTU’S (Edison Electric Institute). 1 gallon #2 fuel oil = 140,000 BTU’S (U.S. Department of Energy). Food Prices In the revised CPI, actual weighted average prices are cal culated each month at the national level and for the four Cen sus geographic regions. As a result of changes in price collection methodology and sample sizes, average prices for individual cities cannot in general be produced. It is hoped however, that regional average prices will help satisfy the need for local area data. It should be noted that the average prices for food in this report reflect variations in brand, qual ity, and size among geographic areas. Users of average food prices should be aware that these differences exist. Because a number of food commodities are not available in all areas on a year-round basis, prices will not appear in some months for some regions or for the U.S. city average. In other instances, sufficient prices may not be available due to temporary disruptions in supplies. Where no average prices are available, the designation NA appears. When a price is not available from an individual store in any month, as estimated price will be calculated for the missing item and used in computing the average price. In cases where the pro portion of estimated prices used to calculate the average is considered too high, the average price is not published and NA appears for that item in the table. Because of space limitations in the table, the description for each item is abbreviated. More detailed specifications are available from the BLS regional offices or from the Washington office upon request. Seasonally Adjusted and Unadjusted Data Because price data are used for different purposes by differ ent groups, the Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes season ally adjusted as well as unadjusted changes each month.For analyzing general price trends in the economy, seasonally adjusted changes are usually preferred since they eliminate the effect of changes that normally occur at the same time and in about the same magnitude every year—such as price movements resulting from changing climatic conditions, production cycles, model changeovers, holidays, and sales. 1A complete technical presentation of BLS research on this subject is available in William C. Randolph, “Housing Depreciation and Aging Bias in the Consumer Price Index,” BLS Working Paper No. 166, April 1987, and Journal of Business and Economic Statistics, Vol. 6, No. 3, July 1988, pp. 359-71 and in William C. Randolph, “Estimation of Housing De preciation: Short Term Quality Change and Long Term Vintage Effects,” BLS Working Paper No. 160, April 1986, and Journal of Urban Econom ics, Vol. 23, March 1988,162-78. These papers are available from the BLS on request. 2 For detail on existing quality adjustment methods, see BLS Handbook of Methods, chapter 19 (BLS Bulletin 2414). Adjustment of Shelter Indexes for Aging Effects Beginning with January 1988 CPI, the Bureau of Labor Statistics adjusts the monthly CPI shelter indexes for the 237 The unadjusted data are of primary interest to consumers concerned about the prices they actually pay. Unadjusted data also are used extensively for escalation purposes. Many collective bargaining contract agreements and pension plans, for example, tie compensation changes to the Consum er Price Index unadjusted for seasonal variation. In most cases, seasonal factors used in computing the sea sonally adjusted indexes are derived by the X -ll- ARIMA Seasonal Adjustment Method. The updated seasonal data at the end of 1977 replaced data from 1967 through 1977. Subse quent annual updates have replaced 5 years of seasonal data, for example, data from 1987 through 1991 were replaced at the end of 1991. The seasonal movement of all items and 47 other aggregations is derived by combining the seasonal movement of 60 selected components. Each year the seasonal status of every series is reevaluated based upon certain statis tical criteria. Occasionally, a component changes its seasonal adjustment status from seasonally adjusted to not seasonally adjusted. When this occurs, not seasonally adjusted data are used for the last 5 years, but before that period the seasonally adjusted indexes remain in calculations of higher-level sea sonally adjusted indexes. Effective with the calculation of the seasonal factors for 1990, the Bureau of Labor Statistics has used an enhanced seasonal adjustment procedure called intervention analysis in conjunction with X-ll-ARIMA for some CPI series. In tervention analysis allows for better estimates of seasonally adjusted data. Extreme values and/or sharp movements which might distort the seasonal pattern are removed from the data prior to calculation of seasonal factors in X-ll-ARIMA. For the fuel oil and the motor fuels indexes, this procedure was used to offset the effects that extreme price volatility would otherwise have had on the estimates of seasonally ad justed data for those series. For some women’s apparel in dexes and the girls’ apparel index, the procedure was used to offset the effects of changes in pricing methodology; and for new cars, new trucks, and new vehicles, this procedure was used to offset the effects of changes in marketing strate gies and the introduction of new models. For the tobacco and smoking products index, this procedure was used to offset the effects of increases in excise taxes and wholesale tobacco prices. For some alcoholic beverage series, intervention was used to offset the effects of excise tax increases. An alternative to the intervention-adjusted X-llARIMA procedure is the state space model-based seasonal adjustment method. This method adjusts simultaneously for interventions and seasonal effects, rather than sequentially as in the X-ll-ARIMA methodology, using structural statis tical models with explanatory variables. The state space structural model-based method of seasonal adjustment was introduced in 1992 for the adjustment of January 1991December 1991 indexes for three women’s apparel series: Dresses, separates and sportswear, and suits.

Metropolitan Areas BLS publishes five major metropolitan areas monthly: Chicago-Gary-Lake County, IL-IN-WI Los Angeles-Anaheim-Riverside, CA New York-Northern NJ-Long Island, NY-NJ-CT Philadelphia-Wilmington-Trenton PA-NJ-DE-MD San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose, CA Data for additional 10 metropolitan areas are published every other month [on an odd (January, March, etc.) or even (February, April etc.) month schedule] for the following areas: Baltimore, MD Boston-Lawrence—Salem, MA-NH Cleveland-Akron—Lorain, OH Dallas-Fort Worth, TX Detroit-Ann Arbor, MI Houston, TX Miami-Fort Lauderdale, FL Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley, PA St. Louis-East St. Louis, MO-IL Washington, DC-MD-VA -odd -odd -odd -even -even -even -odd -even -odd -odd (Note: The designation even or odd refers to the month during which the area’s price change is measured. Due to the time needed for processing, data are released 2 to 3 weeks in to the following month.) Data are published for another group of 12 metropolitan areas on a semiannual basis. These indexes, which refer to the arithmetic average for the 6-month periods from January through June and July through December, are published with release of the CPI for July and January, respectively, in Au gust and February for: Anchorage, AK Atlanta, GA Buffalo-Niagara Falls, NY Cincinnati-Hamilton, OH-KY-IN Denver-Boulder, CO Honolulu, HI Kansas City, MO-KS Milwaukee, WI Minneapolis-St. Paul MN-WI Portland-Vancouver, OR-WA San Diego, CA Seattle-Tacoma, WA Finally, BLS recently began publication of CPI’s for two metropolitan areas on an annual basis. These indexes repre sent the arithmetic averages for the 12-monthly period from January through December of each year. They are published with the release of the CPI for January, i.e., in February. These areas are: New Orleans, LA Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, FL CPI on Electronic Bulletin Board A limited amount of CPI information is currently avail able via the Department of Labor’s electronic bulletin board system (BBS). The data are accessible for downloading free of charge at virtually anytime to any person who has a per sonal computer with a modem and communications soft ware.
