Food, fuel, rent: Tell us how rising household costs have affected you

Inflation has surged over the past year, causing sticker shock at the fuel pump, the grocery checkout and at renewal time for rental housing.

Even households that are benefiting solid employment and rising wages are feeling the squeeze — because costs, on average, are climbing even faster.

We want to hear from Oregon and southwest Washington: How have rising costs affected you?

Please complete this survey, in whole or in part. We may publish your response, or a reporter might follow up to learn more about your circumstances.
