I feel like I hear people complain about living in Colorado more than ever lately. Not sure how that’s possible with a simple look to the west, but if you need more, we also have the cheapest gas in America!

The current average for a gallon of gas in the U.S. is $3.60, up a penny from yesterday (Apr. 8). That’s 21 cents higher than last month but almost exactly the same as it was a year ago.

Prices are highest in California at $5.37 a gallon while they’re the cheapest in Colorado, at $3.06.
