SUMMARY: Gas prices in the US continue to decline this fall, with the average prices being 20 cents lower than last year. The decline in prices is attributed to Americans hunkering down after a busy summer of travel. However, geopolitical conflict is preventing the prices from going even lower. Drivers in states like Georgia, Mississippi, Texas, Louisiana, and Alabama are experiencing the cheapest gas prices this week.
