Here's why gas is $6 a gallon in California, even as prices fall elsewhere
CNN
For many drivers in California, the possibility of paying $6 a gallon for gas is no longer something to worry about down the road. It's already a reality.
In Los Angeles County, by far the nation's most populous with more than 10 million residents, gas now has reached an average price of $6.02 a gallon, according to AAA. Gas prices have also crossed the $6 mark in a few mostly rural California counties, while other population centers such as San Diego, San Francisco, Orange and Ventura counties, are within pennies of $6 a gallon.
California prices continue to spike even as the national average has been falling — slowly but steadily — for the last two weeks.
