Inflation is an average of a number of expenses, so that’s always going to be the case.

A lot of things don’t even go up at the inflation rate. Look at the car prices and housing.

Car prices: supply is constrained because of supply chain issues where often just a small handful of the myriad of chips in the car are unavailable.
Housing: supply is artificially constrained by various laws, often of the NIMBY type.

There is that, but the larger explosion in housing prices can be largely chalked up to under supply in popular markets.
