Wyoming Gasoline Prices Decline, Bucking National Trend

Average gasoline prices in Wyoming have decreased by 3.9 cents per gallon over the past week, settling at $2.83 per gallon as of Monday, according to a survey conducted by GasBuddy.com across 494 stations statewide, Wyoming Tribune Eagle reports.

The state’s average price is now 13.6 cents per gallon lower than a month ago and 2.5 cents per gallon lower than at the same time last year. Among the surveyed stations, the lowest price recorded on Sunday was $2.29 per gallon, while the highest reached $3.69—a $1.40 difference.

In contrast, the national average gasoline price rose by 3.1 cents per gallon over the past week, reaching $3.01 on Monday. While the national average has declined by 2.6 cents per gallon over the past month, it remains 9.2 cents per gallon lower than it was a year ago.
