The Consumer Price Index (CPI) and the corresponding inflation rate for substate areas are calculated by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and can be found in its two journals, the Monthly Labor Review and the CPI Detailed Report . Almost all libraries have statistics on the consumer price index and the inflation rate from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A useful inflation calculator to estimate value of money for different years can be also found at http://www.bls.gov/cpi/.
