Community Issues and Insights 2025: Inflation Continues to Strain Households’ Budgets
Abstract: The Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland’s Community Issues Survey (CIS) collects information semiannually from direct service providers to monitor economic conditions and identify issues impacting low- and moderate-income (LMI) households in the Fourth District, a region that includes Ohio, western Pennsylvania, eastern Kentucky, and the northern panhandle of West Virginia. On March 3–17, 2025, we surveyed nearly 550 organizations that directly serve LMI individuals and communities across our District and received 104 responses (19 percent response rate). The results of this survey are summarized here and provide insights into how organizations and the households they serve are faring in today’s economy.
