Image of Kansas

Kansas is a state in the Great Plains region of the Midwestern U.S., admitted in 1861 as the 34th state. Topeka is the state capital, while Wichita is the largest city. Kansas encompasses about 81,759 sq mi of land (mostly prairies) and has a population of ~2.97 million (2024). Known as the “Sunflower State,” Kansas was historically the backdrop of conflicts over slavery (the “Bleeding Kansas” period in the 1850s prior to the Civil War). Kansas’s economy is strongly tied to agriculture – it is among the nation’s leading producers of wheat (nicknamed “America’s breadbasket”), sorghum, and cattle. Aircraft manufacturing is also significant in Wichita (dubbed the “Air Capital of the World” for its production of general aviation aircraft). Other industries include energy (oil and wind power) and services. Kansas’s nominal GDP was about $234 billion in 2024. Culturally, Kansas is associated with frontier Americana (as portrayed in The Wizard of Oz) and has a history of prairie populism in politics.

Understanding the BLS and Inflation in Kansas

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is a government agency that collects and analyzes economic data across the U.S., including states like Kansas. One of its key responsibilities is tracking inflation through the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which measures how the cost of everyday goods and services changes over time. Inflation can impact everything from housing prices to the cost of groceries, gas, and utilities across the area. By tracking inflation, the BLS helps people from Kansas understand how their purchasing power is affected and provides insights for businesses and policymakers.

What This Graph Represents

This graph shows inflation trends in Kansas using the CPI, highlighting how prices have changed over time. The x-axis represents time (months and years), while the y-axis represents price levels. If the graph moves upward, it means the cost of living is rising, which can affect everything from rent to gas prices. A flatter or downward trend suggests that inflation is stabilizing or decreasing. Keeping an eye on inflation is important for people from Kansas when budgeting for housing, wages, and daily expenses.
