The comparative
index is found in the table below. It compares each county’s
price level to the statewide average for the fourth quarter of 2003.
All twenty-three counties are included in the comparative index. Movement
in ranking from a previous survey does not indicate that the price
level has increased or decreased in a particular county. Instead, this
table reflects only the price level of each county, at the time of
data collection, compared with the statewide average of 100.
