Abstract
ABSTRACT The paper investigates the gasoline market in a major metropolitan area, examining how geography, population density and urban mobility shape its dynamic landscape. Focusing on 93-octane gasoline in Greater Santiago, Chile, we analyse data from 371 gas stations collected over 164 days, taking into account both the types and locations of these stations. Our findings reveal significant price discrepancies within localised areas and competitive practices among stations operating within a 1.5-kilometre radius. These results highlight the intricate interplay of spatial factors and pricing strategies in an economically diverse urban environment, offering insights that are relevant not only to this specific case but also to similar markets around the world.
