Garden City gas prices stay higher than state levels
Southwest Kansas stations pay about 3.75 per gallon for their latest gas supply. Garden City and nearby towns show higher prices due to slower turnover, with local averages around 3.69 to 3.79 per gallon. Prices may edge down in days ahead as refineries and demand shift. The national average sits at 3.58, while Kansas averages 3.40. Local prices reflect wholesale costs, distribution, and refinery health more than crude oil alone.
