vs the Northeast 8
Across the seasons in the table, New Hampshire's season average sits within $0.22/gal of the eight-state mean at its widest. That is the gap against the mean of the states on this site, computed from the table above, not against PADD1A: PADD1A is New England only, so New York and Pennsylvania are not in it. 36% of NH homes heat with oil. NH Dept of Energy posts state surveys but EIA SHOPP is the primary feed.
