<strong>> Price per gallon:</strong> $2.86<br>
<strong>> Unemployment rate:</strong> 7.2% (22nd highest)<br>

<p>Missouri has the lowest gas prices in the nation at just $2.86
per gallon. Yet, the state does not produce or refine any oil.
Like several other states, Missouri is advantaged by its proximity
to refineries in Louisiana and Texas, as well as to major points
along the Keystone Pipeline. The Mississippi River is also used to
transport oil and other products, and it connects the Gulf of
Mexico and Louisiana with Missouri. Additionally, residents of
Missouri pay some of the lowest gas taxes in the nation, totaling
just 17.3 cents per gallon.<br>
