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: $6.088/gal, 56 locations. Last month: Sep 22, 2026: 1 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.

San Francisco has a combined city-and-county government, so the geographic labels overlap here. Its hills, waterfronts and distinct neighborhoods still create different useful fuel-stop choices.

Plan your fuel stop

For San Francisco travel, use the actual neighborhood destination and onward route. The county page and city page are different directory views of the same geographic area, not two separate markets.
