Most adults said that price increases made their financial situation worse.<\/strong> Sixty-five percent of<\/em><\/strong><\/span> adults said that changes in the prices they paid compared with the prior year had made their finan<\/em><\/strong><\/span>cial situation worse<\/em><\/strong><\/span>, including 19 percent who said price changes had made their financial situa<\/strong><\/em><\/span>tion much worse<\/strong><\/em><\/span>. In contrast, 4 percent of adults said that price changes compared with the prior year had made their financial situation better. Thirty-one percent of adults said overall changes in the prices they paid had little to no effect on their financial situation in the last year. Adults with income under $100,000 were more likely to say that price changes had made their financial situation worse compared with responses from higher-income adults. White<\/span> and Hispanic<\/span> adults, adults with a disability<\/span>, and parents living with their children<\/span> under age 18 were also more likely to say<\/span> that changes in prices they paid compared with a year ago had made their financial situation worse<\/span>.\u00a0 (Economic Well-Being of U.S. Households in 2023 May 2024, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Page 28, Paragraph 3)<\/p>\n
