Survey Shows High Inflation Anxiety Among AAPI Adults
An AP-NORC/AAPI Data poll shows 7 in 10 AAPI adults have low confidence in government progress while 6 in 10 are highly concerned about rising health care costs in 2026.
- An AP-NORC poll found about 7 in 10 Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander adults lack confidence in government progress, with inflation and affordability as top concerns.
- Rising costs are linked to concern among AAPI adults that has grown since last year, with many living in higher-cost states like California and New York and facing tariffs on imported goods.
- Methodology notes: About 6 in 10 AAPI adults are very or extremely concerned that health care costs in 2026 will rise, and about 44% want government action, according to the AAPI Data and The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research .
- Household consequences include juggling mortgages, childcare and part-time work as AAPI households prepare for new children, while some reconsider retirement or seek medical care in India due to high costs.
- Policy implications include about half of AAPI adults wanting the government to tackle living costs and inflation, while roughly 2 in 10 prioritize housing costs and jobs for the coming year, with dissatisfaction toward the Trump administration possibly affecting confidence.
