Cool chart of the day: Where the cheap(er) gas is

From GasBuddy, via Barry Ritholtz: Here is a county-by-county map of gas prices. The "hot" colors (red) are high prices; the "cool" colors (green) are lower. But not by much! At a neutral brown, Maryland is in the $3.79 to $3.85 range. That's what passes for a moderate price these days. Delaware is yellow (cheaper than Maryland). What's going on there? Lower gas tax?
