Ukraine's CPI Structural and War-Shock Period Statistics, by Region, 2001-2025
Description
This dataset aggregates Ukraine's regional annual CPI change (December-to-December) into four author-defined macroeconomic periods for each of the 27 first-level administrative regions, reporting the mean, standard deviation, minimum, maximum and coefficient-of-variation-based volatility of regional inflation within each period. Aggregation periods (author-defined periodisation, not published by Derzhstat): - P1, 2001-2007: pre-crisis growth - P2, 2008-2013: post-crisis stabilisation - P3, 2014-2021: hybrid war and macroeconomic reform - P4, 2022-2025: full-scale war and adaptation The dataset is intended as a ready basis for research on the resilience of Ukraine's regional price stability through the 2008-2009 crisis, the hybrid war and occupation from 2014, and the full-scale invasion from 2022. METHODOLOGY & SOURCES The underlying annual regional CPI change figures are taken directly from Derzhstat's official Consumer Price Index publication and are not modified (see the companion Regional CPI Panel dataset for the full annual series and its documented gaps). The four periods and all summary statistics (mean, standard deviation, min, max, coefficient of variation) in this dataset are calculated by the author; the periodisation is an analytical choice, not an official Derzhstat classification. For the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol, no CPI has been published by Derzhstat since 2014; consequently periods P3 (2014-2021) and P4 (2022-2025) for these two entities have zero years of underlying data, and all statistics for those period-entity combinations are blank (n_years_available = 0). This is shown explicitly via n_years_available rather than silently omitted, so that users do not mistake a data gap for zero inflation. Where only one year of data is available within a period, std_dev_cpi_pct and volatility_index_cv_pct are left blank, since a standard deviation is not defined for a single observation.
