I agree with you that these have all risen in cost. All of those (excluding property tax) are included in CPI.

What inflation metric, in your opinion, accurately captures those costs?

To clarify, the CPI story is this: we had a period of high-inflation during COVID/the war in Ukraine and our recovery from COVID / reorganization of energy supply chain away from Russia. Now, we're back to normal-pace inflation. Since prices are a one-way ratchet, we're stuck on a new+higher plateau, but we're not still going up at the rate we were in 2021-2022.

Is there an inflation metric that contradicts this narrative?
