The heat is rising, and gas prices seem to be following. Gas prices affect everyone who has a way to go.

Many local citizens are still wondering why gas can be $2.37 per gallon in one town and $2.54 just down the road. Even worse, prices vary as much a 17ยข per gallon in a distance of 10-20 miles.

Monday, July 19, 2010, according to MSN.com local gas prices in area cities lowest to highest price were as follows:

Albany $2.539-2.699

2.469
D’ville 2.379-2.569

Newton 2.469-2.599

The National average price per gallon was $2.70.9 while the lowest U.S. price was $2.269 at Columbus, OH. The highest U.S. price was $4.37 in Kaunakakai, HI.

Someone seems to have a better buying location, or wants to make more per gallon.
