Inflation Outlook For Maricopa County In 1976
A First National Bank of Arizona study with Arizona State University marks a 5 to 7 percent inflation forecast for 1976 in Phoenix and surrounding areas. Housing costs rise as the market strengthens, while food prices grow slowly and gasoline costs drop, offsetting overall inflation. In 1975 Phoenix CPI rose 8.5 percent with food and housing the largest drivers, and late 1975 utility rate hikes pushed the index higher.
