Why do gas prices vary so much State to State ?
The biggest reason especially in the case of Neighboring states like New York and New Jersey or Illinois and Missouri is state taxes. Gulf Cost States (Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas) have lower gas prices then the rest of the country because they are closet to the Gulf of Mexico where about 1/2 of the Gas is Produced. Gas Prices are made up of 4 Components: 1) Crude Oil Prices, 2) Gas refining costs, 3) Taxes, and 4) Retail Markup.
Of the above 4 components of gas pricing the retail markup (the profit made by the gas station owner) is often the smallest. Crude Oil Prices (the Oil direct from the ground) and Refinery Costs (Turning the Raw oil into usable product like Gasoline and heating oil) are a large majority of the cost and profit. Even the State Taxes are often higher then the Retail Markup.
