With inflation on the rise again, high prices continue to impact Americans across the country. And some metropolitan areas — like South Florida — are seeing steeper inflation rates than others.
The Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach metro area topped WalletHub's recent list of cities most impacted by inflation.
Sunny South Florida showed a 7.8% increase in its consumer price index — which measures the change in how much consumers pay for goods and services — as of August, compared with a year ago.
That's well above the nationwide year-over-year CPI, which hit 3.7% in August.
