Austin Gas Prices Take Another Drop


Average gasoline prices in Austin have fallen six cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $3.05 per gallon.

This compares with the national average that has fallen 8 cents per gallon in the last week to $3.25 per gallon, according to gasoline price website AustinGasPrices.com.

Including the change in gas prices in Austin during the past week, prices are .9 cents lower than the same day one year ago and are 14 cents per gallon lower than a month ago.

The national average has decreased 18.3 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 1.3 cents per gallon higher than this day one year ago.

"The drop in gas prices certainly has been well noted- in some instances people have been calling this a gas price crash. Dub it whatever you like, but I'll remind motorists: gasoline prices in some areas still could set all-time record highs for Christmas Day. While it is excellent that gasoline prices have dropped, I'm not on board with this being called a gas price crash. Call me a grinch, call me a realist, but at the end of the day, data doesn't lie- and that data shows that gasoline prices are still clinging near all-time highs for today's date," said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan
