Why is gas so expensive in Arkansas?

Since I’ve started going back into the office, I’ve noticed that gas in Arkansas is way more expensive than it was before the pandemic hit in 2020. Am I crazy or have gas prices skyrocketed?

You’re not crazy—gas prices in
Arkansas
are at an all-time high after the COVID-19 pandemic. But COVID isn’t the only factor to blame for gas prices going through the roof recently. In addition to Russia’s recent invasion of Ukraine that has led to a U.S. ban on the import of Russian oil, gas prices in Arkansas are higher than ever because of:
  • decreased gas and oil imports
  • fossil fuel supply
  • increased demand
Unfortunately there’s not much you can do about the prices you see at the pump, but you can save money on your other car related expenses when you shop for
