Gasoline/Gas

In my understanding, if you say, "a gas station," it means a station where people fill gasoline into their cars in the United States.

In Japan, people use city gas (usually natural gas) for cooking stoves. How do you say a station that supplies city gas to each house? Is it also a gas station?

All our natural gas lines in the U.S. are underground. We get natural gas through pipes underground. We don't go and get it somewhere. I can't even imagine what you are talking about. Do the Japanese go to some sort of store or supermarket to buy canisters of natural gas for cooking?

In the UK, we call vehicle fuel petrol and diesel, which we buy at petrol stations.

In the home, natural gas for cooking and heating is piped from other European countries to storage facilities in various parts of the country.
