Gas Prices

Check out gas prices around the United States with this interactive price chart.
Change the cities to compare gas prices in cities throughout the US, including Des Moines. You can compare gas prices in other countries as well, like Canada. Change the date range to look at gas prices for a month to gas prices over the past three years. You can really get a good visual of inflation and deflation taking place. If looking at the 1-3 year view, think about events that occurred that may have caused a fluctuation in gas prices. Also, why would other cities have higher or lower gas prices than here in Iowa? Why aren't all gas prices the same across the United States?
