It’s no secret that gas keeps getting more expensive across the U.S., but prices tend to hit even harder in California, often described as a “fuel island” because its gasoline market operates differently from the rest of the country.
According to the AAA Gas Prices website, the statewide average currently sits around $5.33 per gallon, with some stations and premium brands charging as much as $8, as reported by ABC.
Still, there’s no need to panic. A few stations around L.A. are still selling gas for under $5, and even under $4.60 in some cases. For many drivers, that easily makes the extra drive worth it.
