Gas Prices Fall Below $2 In Escambia County
December 29, 2018
The plunge at the pump continues this week, and now gas prices are poised to have their lowest start to the New Year since January 1, 2016.
In Escambia County, prices have now fallen below $2 per gallon at several stations, including $1.97 Friday in Cantonment. The current average price in Escambia County remained at $2.16.
Drivers are finding gas prices below $2 a gallon at about 7 percent of gas stations in Florida. Since mid-October, the state average has plummeted a total of 62 cents. Thursday’s average price of $2.18 per gallon is the lowest daily average price since July 2017.

Been under $2 in Bay Minette and Atmore, Alabama for months — why does it take price gouging Tom Thumb so long to go down one cent a gallon but half a day to go up 10 cents a gallon!!
Still $2.18 in Pace/Milton.
economist is correct. The current fuel prices are a clear reflection of a stagnating market or shrinking market.
low gas prices and dropping gas prices is not a good economic indicator. it is nice to but historically speaking, it only precedes bear markets.
Has anybody thought it might have something to do with the President? Might want to take a look at your taxes in tax time.
Try $2.29 a gallon still in Century!!!
THANK YOU………
THis must mean the world is at peace since prices normally go WAY up when there is discord in the world.
Why are gas prices still so high in Okaloosa County?
Gas prices in Escambia county would be even lower if it weren’t for that ridiculous four cents per gallon gas tax we pay to maintain and buy new buses for ECAT, a public transportation system that very few people use. Another great decision brought to you and me by the Escambia BOCC against what people in their districts want, especially district 1
