Can’t tell if you’re implying that there is no inflation or if inflation is much higher than 5%?

Usually these folks are of the type who seem to think "well, my rent went up by 10%, therefore inflation cant really be 5%"

And are "these folks" as wrong as you imply? Is there a better indicator of inflation than a dollar's purchasing power?
