The average price of gasoline in New York is $3.05 per gallon, down 2.1 cents from last week, and the national average is down 4.1 cents from a week ago standing at $3.07.
According to GasBuddy data, the national average is down 5.2 cents from a month ago and 32.8 cents lower than a year ago.
Prices in New York State are unchanged from a month ago and 53.9 cents per gallon lower than a year ago.
“Average gas prices declined in nearly all states over the last week as refineries ramped up output and gasoline supplies surged,” Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy, said.
“While a few states experienced price cycling — a pattern where prices drop sharply and then spike every couple of weeks — the overall gentle downward trend is typical as summer progresses. If oil prices continue to rise gradually, it could eventually impact gas prices, but for now, we likely won’t see any major shifts at the pump in most areas this week.”
The top 10% of gas stations have a reported average of $4.39 per gallon and the bottom averaging $2.51.
California has the highest average price per gallon at $4.63, followed by Hawaii at $4.43 and Washington at $4.33.
The state with the lowest average price is Mississippi at $2.60 per gallon, Oklahoma at $2.63 and Louisiana at $2.68.
The most common price per gallon encountered by motorists in the US remains unchanged at $2.99.
As of Tuesday, June 9 these are the reported prices per gallon from stations around the North Country.
