LODGING Ample lodging is available with 34 Hotels/Motels (2,210 rooms) and 11 Bed & Breakfasts (55 rooms) in the Tyler area. 7 CLIMATE One of the most attractive features of the Tyler area is the climate. Because of the consistently Month High Low mild weather and abundant amount of annual January 57° 36° rainfall, Tyler is a gardener's paradise. Perennials, bulbs, fruits and vegetables all grow as abundantly April 78° 55° as our pine trees. Spring flowers begin blooming in July 94° 71° early March and continue throughout the Summer. October 80° 56° TEMPERATURES RAINFALL Tyler's average annual rainfall is 43.1 inches and the area averages over 245 days of sunny weather annually. 8 COST OF LIVING Tyler's cost of living index at the second quarter of 2015 was TYLER MSA COMPOSITE 93.1 of 100, and has consistently been 90-96% of the national 2015 Second Quarter average for the past five years. Cost of living indexes measure the relative price levels for consumer goods and services Category Index compared against the national average. The national average is Groceries 89.8 always 100. Indexes below 100 indicate lower prices (less Housing 94.3 expensive) than the national average. Utilities 98.1 For example, Tyler's grocery index is 89.8. If during the first Transportation 90.5 quarter of 2015 you bought a $100 basket of groceries in a city Health Care 90.0 with a grocery index of 100, you would pay $100, the national Miscellaneous 93.3 average, for those groceries. However, in Tyler, you would only pay $89.80 for that same basket of groceries - a savings of Total 93.1 $10.20, or 10.2%. In other words, your hard-earned dollars can buy more goods in Tyler than anywhere in the nation on average. The Council for Community and Economic Research (ACCRA) conducts a nationwide survey and calculates the cost of living index each quarter. Since the number of respondents to the survey change each quarter, it is impossible to compare a quarter with any other quarter. A decline in the composite score or any categorical score does not necessarily mean prices have dropped, though this is possible. A drop in an index could also be caused if prices are rising locally and on the national average, but the local prices are rising at a smaller pace than the national average. The cost of living index is not a measure of inflation!
