The numbers were good, but feelings were bad: The US economy in 2024

The U.S. economy exhibits robust indicators, such as low unemployment and significant job creation, yet many Americans express dissatisfaction due to rising living costs, especially in food and housing. This sentiment, particularly among low-income families, reflects a disconnect between economic data and personal experience. As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take office, there are questions regarding whether his policy proposals will effectively address these challenges or potentially worsen inflation. The polarized political landscape further complicates expectations about future economic conditions.

**The US economy shows strong performance through positive GDP growth and job creation, yet many citizens feel dissatisfied primarily due to high living costs, particularly in food and housing.**
**Public sentiment about the economy can often diverge from objective economic metrics, leading to complex political dynamics, as seen in the recent elections where economic dissatisfaction played a key role.**

# Job CreationAn overview of job growth in the U.S. economy, highlighting the number of jobs added and the implications for households.
