Finding cheap gas in Chicago (60647)
Logan Square and Bucktown define this ZIP, hip, increasingly upscale neighborhoods northwest of the Loop where the Kennedy Expressway (I-90/94) slices through on its way downtown. Western Avenue runs the western edge of Bucktown, and the corridor of Milwaukee, Fullerton, and Western carries the commercial energy and most of the local fuel stations.
This is a dense, transit-rich part of the city, well served by the CTA Blue Line, so plenty of residents do not even own a car. For those who do, the gas stations concentrate along the busy arterials and near the expressway access points rather than in the residential blocks of three-flats and rehabbed workers' cottages.
Chicago and Cook County fuel taxes are built into the price here like everywhere in the city, so it is worth a quick comparison. The higher-volume stations along Western Avenue and the streets feeding the Kennedy generally beat the smaller corner pumps tucked into the side streets.

How to save more on gas in Chicago
1. Use warehouse clubs
Costco and Sam’s Club typically price 15-25 cents per gallon below nearby stations. Membership pays for itself within a few fill-ups.
2. Fill up early in the week
Stations often raise prices Thursday for weekend demand. Fill up Monday through Wednesday to avoid the lift.
3. Keep tires properly inflated
Properly inflated tires improve fuel economy by up to 3 percent at current prices. Check pressure once a month.
4. Check back tomorrow
Prices can shift 10-20 cents overnight during volatile markets. A quick check before you leave home avoids paying yesterday’s spike.
5. Pay cash at split-pricing stations
Stations with cash and credit split pricing typically save an average of 10 cents per gallon when you pay cash.

About gas prices in Illinois
Illinois has one of the more complex gas pricing maps in the country: the state tax is around 47 cents, but Cook County and the city of Chicago add their own per-gallon excise on top, pushing pump prices in downtown Chicago to among the highest in the Midwest. Stations in DuPage and Will counties just outside Cook routinely run 30 to 50 cents cheaper for the same brand. Costco, Sam's Club, Thorntons, and Casey's General Store are the dependable value picks across Chicago and its suburbs, with Costco in Schaumburg and Naperville especially popular.
