A Glance at Global Gas Prices

Contributed by mm | June 11, 2004 10:18 AM PST

It is kind of relief to know lots of people elsewhere around the world are paying much more for gas.

For example:

City: Cost Per Gallon

London: $7.03
Hong Kong: $5.62
Frankfurt: $5.30
Rome: $4.88
Tokyo: $3.88

On the other end, people are lucky to live in Caracus, Venezuela (paying $0.14/gallon), and Baghdad, Iraq (paying $0.05/gallon). Well, only if you want to live in these countries just for the cheap gas.
