Gasoline prices by state and region

Regular gasoline averaged $4.32 a gallon across the United States in the week of September 14, 2026, up 16¢ on the week before and up 115¢ on a year ago. The figures are the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s weekly pump survey, taken each Monday and published the same evening.

EIA publishes its own weekly series for 9 states and ten cities; every other state is covered by the district EIA files it under, and its page says so. A PADD is a Petroleum Administration for Defense District, one of the five regions (the East Coast split in three) EIA has grouped fuel statistics by since 1942.

EIA data are in the public domain. A year-ago figure is the survey week fifty-two weeks earlier. What electricity and natural gas cost in each state is on the energy prices pages.
