Missouri's Data
Missouri is a state in the Midwestern U.S., admitted in 1821 as part of the Missouri Compromise (24th state). Jefferson City is the capital, though Kansas City and St. Louis are its largest urban areas (on its western and eastern borders, respectively). Missouri’s land area is about 68,742 sq mi, and its population is ~6.25 million (2024). Geographically, it ranges from the Ozark Mountains in the south to the plains in the north. Missouri is bordered by the Mississippi River on the east and the Missouri River flows through the state (the state is named after the river). Missouri’s economy is diverse: major industries include aerospace and defense, automotive manufacturing, agriculture (corn, soybeans, cattle), and beer brewing (Anheuser-Busch started in St. Louis). The state’s central location made it historically important for trade and migration (St. Louis was known as the “Gateway to the West,” symbolized by the Gateway Arch). Missouri’s nominal GDP was about $448 billion in 2024. Culturally, Missouri has blended Midwestern and Southern influences. It’s the birthplace of Mark Twain and toasted ravioli, and has a rich musical heritage (ragtime innovator Scott Joplin lived in St. Louis, and Kansas City contributed to jazz and blues).

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