The CPI-U by Calendar Year averages the CPI-U for the period January 1–December 31 (CY2025 = January 1, 2025–December 31, 2025). The CPI 2025 Series uses CY2025 as the base year equaling 100.*

The CPI Base uses 1982–1984 as the base year equaling 100. The June CPI is the CPI-U as of June of each year. The December CPI is the CPI-U as of December of each year.

*October 2025 data unavailable due to the lapse in appropriations. CY2025 and FY2026 data are based on an eleven-month average with October omitted.
