769. Consumer Price Indexes (CPI-U)--Selected Areas

[1982-84=100, except as indicated. Represents annualaverages of monthly figures, except as noted. Local area CPI indexesare byproducts of the national CPI program. Each local index has a smaller sample sizethan the national index and is therefore, subject to substantially moresampling and other measurement error. As a result, local area indexesshow greater volatility than the national index, although their long-term trends are similar. Area definitions are those established by theOffice of Management and Budget in 1983. For further detail see theU.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Handbook of Methods, Bulletin 2285,Chapter 19, the Consumer Price Index, and Report 736, the CPI: 1987Revision.

http://stats.bls.gov/cpihome.htmEffective with the release of January 1998 data on February 24, 1998, the Consumer Price Index will undergo many changesas a result of our 1998 weight revision. In addition to updates to expenditure weights and changes to the composition of somegroup and subgroup indexes, there will also be changes in the availability of and item codes for published item and areaindexes. A concordance between the old series and the revised series for CPI items is available in the item concordance. Alist of published areas is available.

Please see The 1998 CPI Revision documents on our World Wide Web site at http://stats.bls.gov/cpihome.htm for moredetailed information about the CPI Revision.

Changes to Databases: As always, the most up-to-date CPI data will be found in CU (Consumer Price Index for All UrbanConsumers) and CW (Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers). Starting on February 24, thenew CPI item structure and coding system will be in place in the CU and CW database. Complete historical information forall continuous series, using the new coding structure, will continue to reside in the CU and CW databases.

Two other databases, MU and MW will be available on February 24. These databases will be set up using the old itemstructure and coding system. They will contain indexes through December 1997 for discontinued CPI series. For the first sixmonths of 1998, overlap indexes will be posted to the MU and MW databases. See the Publication Strategy article in the CPIRevision documents for more details.

MU and MW are accessible to users from the same database tools as the CU and CW series (Series Report and SelectiveAccess on the Web, and file transfer from our FTP server).

Special "research" series (showing some history using the new item structure) for Housing, Other Goods and Services, Fuelsand Utilities. Fruits and Vegetables, and Household Furnishings and Operations will be available on our FTP server in the"special requests/cpi" directory as cpihistrsrch.txt.
