you didn't mention tire pressure
nor did you really describe your typical roads traveled, but even if 100% urban driving, with your description of throttle control, I would expect 16+ mpg. Is the AC on all the time? A lot of stuck in traffic?
How many miles on the car?
If the car runs fine, i.e., no hesitation or poor acceleration, I wouldn't expect fuel filter problems.
You could always run a bottle of Techron through it, to help clean fuel injectors, but if other running fine...
