La inflación de diciembre fue del 5,1% y en el año llegó al 94,8%

The INDEC report reveals that annual inflation in 2022 reached 94.8%, marking the highest level in 32 years and significantly exceeding official pre-estimates. This surge highlights severe macroeconomic instability, with specific sectors such as hospitality, alcohol, and household maintenance experiencing particularly sharp price increases. The data underscores a disconnect between government forecasts and actual economic performance, reflecting broader structural challenges in price control and fiscal management. Regionally, the Northeast and Greater Buenos Aires suffered the most intense price increases, illustrating uneven economic impacts across the country. These disparities suggest that inflationary pressures are not uniform, affecting vulnerable populations and specific geographic areas more severely than others. The intensity of the rise in essential goods and services indicates a deepening cost-of-living crisis that disproportionately impacts lower-income households and general purchasing power. This dataset is critically relevant to open data because it exemplifies the necessity of transparent, accessible, and granular public statistics for accountability. By releasing detailed regional and sectoral breakdowns, INDEC enables independent verification, academic research, and civil society analysis. Such openness allows citizens and journalists to scrutinize official narratives, fostering informed public debate and demanding greater accuracy in economic governance.
