What do you suppose accounts for the vastly differing pricing just across a freeway?

Seems to me pitchforks would come out whenever someone next-door is paying half the cost.

Springfield must be using all that cheap solar and wind everyone keeps proclaiming is cheaper than everything else.

Was just in Corvallis today on one of my infrequent work trips. Wonder what those folk are paying?
