Petroleum expert Patrick De Haan says national average gas price has little connection to midterms

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (WSYR-TV) -- For the first time in months, the national average price for a gallon of gas is below $4 -- just not currently in New York. Patrick De Haan, a petroleum expert and an analyst as Gas Buddy, told NewsChannel 9 Anchor Jeff Kulikowsky that despite what some people may think, those prices have "very little to do" with the midterm elections that were held last week.

Madison County housing report: Market tough for renters, homebuyers

Madison County isn’t the easiest place in which to find a good rental unit or to buy an affordable home these days, according to a new county report on housing. The median home price in the county’s historically affordable housing market rose by about $100,000 between 2020 and 2026 because there aren’t enough homes on the market, according to the recently released Madison County 2026 Housing Assessment. And more than two out of three rental units in the county will be at least 50 years old by 2030. But local rents aren’t high enough for landlords to afford the necessary maintenance and upgrades, according to the report. That doesn’t mean, though, that apartments are easily affordable for county residents. About two out of three renters earning $50,000 annually or less pay more for rent than they can really afford, the assessment found. And that number goes up to more than 80% for renters earning less than $35,000 a year. And that gloomy assessment hits as the county is hoping to benefit from new residents moving to the county to take advantage of economic development efforts in Central New York, such as the Micron complex being built in Clay. “This report

We all have ways of saving some money, some a little more unique than others. When it comes to water, especially drinking water, things could get costly. For those in areas with sulfur water or higher levels of contaminants, sometimes bottled is the only option. Personally, I prefer tap water and always have.
