We're not sure the results of this study will make it any easier to sleep at night, but a new report from WalletHub found that the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington metro had the smallest inflation problem in the entire United States.
According to CultureMap Dallas, the report analyzed "the impact of inflation across 23 major metropolitan statistical areas using Consumer Price Index data from the latest month available and compared to data from two months prior," while also factoring in "inflation data from last year to better track both short- and long-term inflation changes."
The Metroplex ranked 23 of the 23 areas studied with only a .10% increase in its local inflation rate when compared to two months prior.
The ten metros with the worst inflation problem include:
1 - Boston-Cambridge-Newton, Massachusetts-New Hampshire
2 – St. Louis, Missouri-Illinois
3 – Baltimore-Columbia-Townson, Maryland
4 – San Diego-Carlsbad, California
5 – Denver-Aurora-Lakewood, Colorado
6 – Urban Honolulu, Hawaii
7 – Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, California
8 – Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, Illinois-Indiana-Wisconsin
9 – Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, California
10 – New York-Newark-Jersey City, New York-New Jersey-Pennsylvania
