<br /> NOTE: Local area indexes are byproducts of the national CPI program. Each local index has a smaller sample size than the national index and is,
<br /> therefore,subject to substantially more sampling and other measurement error.As a result, local area indexes show greater volatility than the national
<br /> index,although their long-term trends are similar.Therefore,the Bureau of Labor Statistics strongly urges users to consider adopting the national
<br /> average CPI for use in their escalator clauses.
<br /> NOTE: Index applies to a month as a whole, not to any specific date.
