Maine's Data
Maine is a state in New England, in the northeastern tip of the U.S. It was admitted in 1820 as the 23rd state (as part of the Missouri Compromise). Augusta is the capital, while the Portland metropolitan area is the most populous region. Maine’s land area is about 30,843 sq mi, and it has a population of ~1.41 million (2024), making it the least populous state in New England. Maine is known for its rugged coastline dotted with lighthouses, its heavily forested interior (earning the nickname “Pine Tree State”), and as a top producer of lobsters and blueberries. Maine’s economy has traditionally been based on natural resources: fishing (lobster, other seafood), forestry and paper products, and agriculture. Shipbuilding was historically important as well. Today, these sectors continue, complemented by tourism (coastal vacations, Acadia National Park) and an emerging craft brewing industry. Maine’s nominal GDP was about $98 billion in 2024. Culturally, Maine has a distinct Yankee/New England character, with a reputation for tough, independent people (as reflected in literature by Maine native Stephen King) and unique regional foods like lobster rolls and clam chowder.

Maine Inflation
Understanding the BLS and Inflation in Maine
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is a government agency that collects and analyzes economic data across the U.S., including states like Maine. 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 Maine understand how their purchasing power is affected and provides insights for businesses and policymakers.
What This Graph Represents
This graph shows inflation trends in Maine 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 Maine when budgeting for housing, wages, and daily expenses.
