For the national 3% average to hold, for the low end of my range (30%) to hold on the west coast, the rest of the country would have to be suffering from deflation.

There is not 30% inflation in any region. Not even 15%.

I think you have to go back to the civil war era and greenback inflation to find numbers like that in any region.
