National, state gas prices unchanged in last week, while local prices increase
Average gasoline prices in Texas are unchanged in the last week, averaging $3.99/g today, according to GasBuddy’s survey of 13,114 stations in Texas. Prices in Texas are 83.8 cents per gallon higher than a month ago and stand $1.38/g higher than a year ago.
However, gas prices in Breckenridge and Stephens County are up an average of 39 cents per gallon for regular unleaded over last week’s prices, with individual increases ranging from 20 cents to 75 cents per gallon. See the chart of local gas prices below.
According to GasBuddy price reports, the lowest price in Texas on Sunday, March 13, was $2.89/g while the highest was $4.99/g, a difference of $2.10/g.
The national average price of gasoline is unchanged in the last week, averaging $4.32/g today. The national average is up 83.6 cents per gallon from a month ago and stands $1.47/g higher than a year ago, according to GasBuddy data compiled from more than 11 million weekly price reports covering over 150,000 gas stations across the country.
“After a furious increase in the national average over the last two weeks, the top appears to be in with average gas prices slowly starting to decline over the last few days,” said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysts at GasBuddy. “While the decrease could be short-lived, it is nonetheless a well-needed break from the large surge in gas prices we’ve experienced over the last few weeks. The situation remains fluid, and escalations remain very possible, if not likely. For now, a $4.50 per gallon national average is off the table, but it certainly could be a future possibility as long as there is conflict between Russia and Ukraine.”
