Amid inflation and other economic pressures, WalletHub took a look at which of the 23 major metropolitan statistical areas in the country are getting hit the hardest versus a year ago.
Leading the list on a year-over-year basis was the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach, FL area, which saw inflation rise 6.9% from a year ago. A second metric ranked cities by overall inflation, combining long-term (year-over-year) and short-term (month-over-month) changes in pricing pressure. By that measure, the Denver-Aurora-Lakewood, CO area was ranked as the city with the biggest inflation problem overall, scoring an 89.22 on a scale of 1 to 100.
