Florida’s Average Gas Price Falls Below $3, Lower Locally
May 12, 2025
The average Florida gas price fell below $3 a gallon last week, according to AAA.
The state average dipped to $2.93 per gallon on Sunday. That’s the lowest daily average price since December 2023.
Sunday’s state average is 17 cents less than a week ago, 22 cents less than a month ago, and 54 cents less than this time last year.
The average price per gallon in Escambia County was $2.83 on Sunday. Several stations in Pensacola were at $2.66, while a low price of $2.68 was available at one Cantonment station.
“Florida drivers are seeing the lowest gas prices in 17 months,” said Mark Jenkins, spokesman for AAA – The Auto Club Group. “Prices dipped due to fears that the trade war could trigger a recession and reduce fuel demand. However, reports of easing tensions pushed oil prices higher last week, which could result in rising prices at the pump.”
