what happened

The Wall Street Journal has published an interactive piece on fuel costs across the United States. According to the outlet, since the start of the war with Iran, swings in gasoline prices have changed how Americans budget for filling up.

An extended ceasefire eased prices from late June into July, but since late summer gasoline and diesel prices have risen again. National averages and local comparisons by county are available in the outlet's tool.

why it matters

For markets, the key signal is that rising retail fuel prices point to a costly refined-products chain and can weigh on consumer spending and inflation expectations. Regional differences reflect taxes, logistics and local demand. The article may be updated periodically, so readers should check the latest version for current figures.
