Inflation in the Bay Area finally started cooling at the end of 2022, although year-over-year increases in living costs remain far higher than is typical, a government report released Thursday shows.

The Bay Area inflation rate in December was 4.9% as measured over a one-year period, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported, down from 6 percent in the previous report in October.
