Residential natural gas price by U.S. state, 2025 and 2024 annual, with August 2026 (EIA Natural Gas Prices)
Authors/Creators
Description
Residential natural gas price by U.S. state for all 50 states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. total: annual average 2025 and 2024 in dollars per thousand cubic feet (Mcf), the percent change from 2024 to 2025, and the August 2026 monthly price. Dollars per therm are converted from the 2025 price using EIA's 2025 state heat content of natural gas delivered to consumers. Rank 1 is the state with the highest 2025 price. Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), Natural Gas Prices, release of 2026-10-30.
Columns: rank, abbr, name, residential_usd_per_mcf_2025, residential_usd_per_therm_2025, residential_usd_per_mcf_2024, change_pct_2024_2025, residential_usd_per_mcf_aug2026, heat_content_btu_per_cf_2025, source_url, source_release_date.
Caveats: NA means EIA published no value (NA) or withheld it (W). Six states (CT, ME, MD, NC, RI, SC) have no 2025 annual value and are left unranked. Summer monthly prices run high because fixed customer charges are spread over low volumes, so the August 2026 column is not comparable with the annual averages. The U.S. row is EIA's published U.S. total, not an average of the state rows. Prices are EIA's average revenue per Mcf delivered to residential customers, not a utility tariff.
