Methodology
State values use national CEX 2000 weights × Nebraska-specific prices for strata with state-level source data. For strata without state-level data, the engine walks the fallback ladder per period (state → national) with chain-link rescale at the geography transition.
See the methodology page for the load-bearing pillars and the basket page for per-stratum weights and source map.
