While the economy remains strong, inflation remains top concern for Wisconsinites

Unsurprisingly, inflation ranks as the top concern, with 63% of the respondents in the new WisconSays/La Follette survey believing it is quite a problem or an extremely big problem. Furthermore, the survey – taken in summer/fall 2023 – indicates that inflation was perceived as particularly difficult for households most financially challenged: 72% of those “financially much worse off” considered inflation in Wisconsin “an extremely big problem.”
