About gas prices in Connecticut
Connecticut sits inside the New England reformulated gasoline zone, which adds production cost to every gallon and keeps prices closer to neighboring Rhode Island and Massachusetts than to Pennsylvania. The state gas tax is roughly 25 cents per gallon, plus a Gross Earnings Tax on petroleum products at the wholesale level that effectively pushes consumer prices higher. Hartford and New Haven both draw supply from harbor terminals in New Haven and Bridgeport. Costco, BJ's Wholesale, and Sam's Club lead on value across Hartford, New Haven, Bridgeport, and Stamford, while Cumberland Farms is the dominant regional convenience-store fuel option. Stamford and Greenwich often track New York City pricing rather than Connecticut averages.
