Probably also a bit of a history component.
When my parents built their house in rural New York, they could have chosen gas or propane. However that was the height of the first wave of nuclear power, when it was being promised “electricity will soon be too cheap to meter”. Of course now that looks like an insane choice as the most expensive.
Any areas built out during the 1950s-1980s may have followed this logic
