About gas prices in New York
New York's gas tax sits near 49 cents per gallon when you fold in petroleum business taxes, motor fuel taxes, and the prepaid sales tax, giving it one of the higher per-gallon burdens nationally. New York City and Long Island both require reformulated gasoline (RFG) to meet federal clean-air standards, which adds a few cents over upstate prices and explains why a station in Buffalo prices noticeably below an equivalent in Queens. Costco, Sam's Club, Speedway, and Stewart's Shops in the Hudson Valley tend to be your cheapest options across New York City, Buffalo, and Syracuse metros.
