The average price for a gallon of regular gas in Bakersfield, California, has risen from $5.39 per gallon last week to $5.,69 per gallon, a significant increase of approximately 30 cents. This increase is attributed to the ongoing Iran–Israel conflict, which has pushed crude oil prices higher and raised concerns about supply disruptions. The statewide average for regular gas is now $6.5.
