Monthly figures use seasonally adjusted BLS CPI-U data (CUSR series) and reflect month-over-month change. Annual figures use unadjusted data (CUUR series) and reflect year-over-year change. A dash (—) means no seasonally adjusted series is published by BLS for that category. Source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
