Gas prices down due to lower demand
Published: Jul. 6, 2022 at 9:47 AM EDT
(CNN) - American drivers are getting a bit of a break at the pumps this week.
According to AAA, the national average for a gallon of gas is down 8 cents from last week, to $4.80.
Analysts say that is due to lower demand right now, but that could change soon because July is the busiest month during the summer driving season.
Right now, the most expensive gas in the U.S. is in California, Oregon and Arizona.
The least expensive gas is in South Carolina, Georgia and Mississippi.
