Montana's Data
Montana is a state in the Mountain West region, known for its expansive open spaces and as “Big Sky Country.” It was admitted in 1889 as the 41st state. Helena is the capital, though the largest city is Billings. Montana’s land area is about 145,546 sq mi, making it the fourth-largest state, and it has a relatively small population of ~1.14 million (2024) (second-lowest population density after Alaska). The state’s terrain ranges from the Rocky Mountains in the west (Glacier National Park) to the Great Plains in the east. Montana’s economy historically relied on mining (copper, gold, coal) and agriculture (cattle ranching and wheat farming). Those sectors remain important, but tourism has become a major contributor, with millions visiting its national parks and wilderness areas each year. Energy development (coal, oil in the Bakken formation, wind) also contributes to the economy. Montana’s nominal GDP was around $76 billion in 2024, one of the smaller state economies. The state is culturally associated with the American West’s cowboy and rodeo traditions, and it has a significant Native American presence (seven reservations). It is celebrated for outdoor activities like fishing, hunting, and hiking.

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