Texas state gas tax: 20¢/gal · Federal tax: 18.4¢/gal · Total tax: ~38¢/gal
Texas is the cheapest state for gas in the country. It is the largest oil producer in the US and home to the largest refinery complex in North America along the Gulf Coast. The state has no state income tax, very low gas taxes, and enormous refinery output that keeps supply abundant and prices low. Houston and the Permian Basin area see the lowest prices.
