California had held the unwanted title of America’s most expensive state for gas for roughly 95% of the time over the last few years, according to Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy.

Eight of the top 10 metro areas in America with the highest price at the pump are located in California, according to AAA.
