California cities are seeing the largest rates of inflation in the United States. Experts say it's due to high housing costs throughout the state.
New data released this week from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics says San Diego County saw the largest increase in consumer price index in May, with a nearly four-percent increase.
Los Angeles County, Orange County and counties in the Inland empire saw about three-percent of an increase in consumer prices.
Economic data also shows unemployment is down slightly in the Sacramento region year over year for the month of May from 3.6 to 3.5 percent. More Sacramento region economic data is available by clicking here.
