These cost of living adjustments are performed using the COLI index (formerly called the ACCRA adjustment factor) which includes information about prices from over 400 reporting locations across the United States. The COLI index has been published quarterly since 1968 by the American Chamber of Commerce Researchers Association (ACCRA) and is commonly used measure of how prices and wages compare in different metropolitan areas across the country. More information about the index and instructions for the use of its data are available here. The factors used for adjustment on these pages are simple averages of all the price levels within a given state: so for New York state, the state factor is the result of averaging all the price levels in the various reporting localities.
