The Consumer Price Index in Cantabria shows an annual inflation rate that exceeds the national average, driven primarily by rising costs in transportation, housing, and hospitality. Although the monthly increase has moderated, the cumulative trend confirms a persistent impact on citizens’ purchasing power throughout the year. The relevance of these data for the open-source community lies in the need for transparency and access to verifiable statistical information. Open data facilitates critical analysis of economic indicators, enabling civil society and researchers to scrutinize official figures and detect regional inequalities with greater precision. This promotes institutional accountability by making macroeconomic data auditable and understandable. By democratizing access to this information, citizens’ capacity to engage in well-founded public debates is strengthened, ensuring that public policies adequately respond to the real economic needs of the region.
