UK Inflation Visualisation ⓘ

Explore how inflation (CPIH) in the UK has changed over time across various categories. Data source: Office for National Statistics.

Red indicates rising prices, blue indicates falling prices.

Use the date selectors to choose a time range, and the search bar to quickly find a category.

Click circles to zoom in - click again on the current circle or right-click to zoom back out.

Note: As an unavoidable side-effect of the circle packing layout, areas do not directly correlate with weights.
For example, the weight of "Housing, Water And Fuels" is roughly triple that of "Recreation & Culture", but the circles appear to be roughly equal.
