Gas prices decreased an average of 5 cents per gallon of regular unleaded nationally in the past week, and are down an average of 2 cents per gallons state-wide, according to AAA.

The national average price for a gallon of gasoline is $3.08 while the average price in New York State is $3.16, AAA said today.

“According to the Energy Information Administration, demand for gasoline has fallen to a four-month low, contributing to the continued decline in pump prices,” AAA said. “With the third quarter of 2025 ending in higher gasoline inventories and the seasonal transition from summer-grade to winter-grade fuel, consumers are likely to see even lower prices at the pump in the coming weeks.”

Here are the average prices today for regular unleaded in WNY counties:

  • Orleans, $3.239
  • Genesee, $3.195
  • Niagara, $3.167
  • Monroe, $3.176
  • Livingston, $3.203
  • Wyoming, $3.214
  • Erie, $3.177
  • Chautauqua, $3.285
  • Cattaraugus, $3.145
  • Allegany, $3.192
