Per-unit spending growth. Each line is one jurisdiction's spending per resident or student, with it starting at 100 in FY 2016 measured against a single inflation benchmark.

Select jurisdictions from the right; each appears as a line here. The green dashed line is inflation (CPI-U West). A line above inflation means per-unit spending outpaced prices; below means it lagged.
