Abstract
This study employs a model developed by the Bureau of Economic Analysis which utilizes the CPI-covered area rent data to bridge them to other non-CPI-covered census areas. It then regresses the price level on both the CPI data and the bridged rent data and population density. This paper discusses the application of the model to create the South Carolina county cost of living index.
