How we compare prices

Regular gasoline only. We compare the county average today with its average yesterday and on the same date last month. Each average uses the available stations at that time, with prices no more than 36 hours old. The mix of stations and payment conditions can change, so this is an indicative county trend.

Yesterday: Oct 21, 2026: $6.122/gal, 282 locations. Last month: Sep 22, 2026: $5.906/gal, 14 locations. Cutoffs use the same local time in California; a shorter month uses its last day. Monthly comparisons need at least 3 stations on each date; daily comparisons need 12. Past averages are reconstructed from recorded observations.

Alameda County reaches from the eastern shore of San Francisco Bay into inland valley communities. Hills separate some destinations that may look close on a map.

Plan your fuel stop

For Alameda County trips, compare fuel on the side of the hills your route uses. An inland observation and a shoreline stop should be judged by the complete drive.
