What was the price of a gallon of milk in 1910?

In 1910, the average price of a gallon of milk in the United States was around $0.32. This price varied depending on location and the specific dairy brand. It's important to note that inflation and other economic factors have significantly impacted the cost of goods over the past century, so the price of a gallon of milk today is much higher than it was in 1910.


What was the average price of a 3- to 4-bedroom home in the Ozarks in the early 1900s?

Early 1900s covers more than a decade, so I have chosen 1910 for this answer. The average price of housing in 1910 was about 5% of today's cost. For example, if you are talking about a $100,000 house in the Ozarks, then it would have cost about $5,000 in 1910. On the other hand, if the house in the Ozarks (or generally anywhere in the US for this particular inflation metric) is on the water with a boat dock and a brand new granite-top island kitchen costing $500,000, then it would have cost about $25,000 in 1910.
