    I remember living in a studio apartment long time ago with a bill this nice!

    It depends on the season. Milder temps run the a/c less, colder fall/winters run the heat more.

    Ours is combined with our Gas bill. 1700 square foot townhouse. Winter it can get up to about $150 (we are in Wisconsin, so it's freezing cold during the winter and we use a lot of heat) and every other season it averages about $60/month.

    between $50 and $170 depending on the season - 3bedroom house; I tend to keep the temp low, because its easier to pile blankets on that pay for the cost

    In the summer around $175 due to the air conditioner. We had a really hot July last year and it went over $200! The rest of the year between $75 and $100

    In the winter my gas bill is a bit higher, maybe $150 during the coldest months. The rest of the year my gas bill is as low as $25.

    When I lived in NY in a 900 square foot apartment my gas bill was atrocious and I kept the heat low :neutral:

    I live in a two bedroom house, with an unattached garage/bar fully set up. That includes 2 fridges, a kegerator and a large chest freezer.

    I pay between $120 and $280 monthly.

    Between $140.00 and $350.00 a month. Dependant on the season and the the temperatures that season. This winter was pretty mild so my bill averaged around $180.00 a month.

    Similar for Arizona. Winters are nothing and bills run around $125 for electricity. Summer time though we hit the $500 mark in July/August and average bills are over $400.

    Around $200 a month so far but haven't gotten to the 100 plus weather yet, so hopefully it isn't too crazy high this summer.

    Mine is $100 in the winter and $400 in the summer. 3 beds
    Between $600-700 in the summer months, around $200 when we switch to gas heat for the cooler months. 6000 sq ft. 3 A/C units.

    You live in a mansion?

    I just stopped using an old deep freezer that was hardly working and my bill dropped from about $90-$100 to this month being $80. I almost always have the lights off and don't run too many things (my electricity is solely for that, no water is included).

    I have a 931 sq foot apartment. My electric bill is anywhere between $35-65 depending on whether I leave the windows open or run the air/heat.

    seriously the admin/distribution fees are the worst

    my water bill is the same way - the actual water is less than $20, but when they factor in the admin, and the Chesapeake Bay initiative, it drives it up to $50+

    We use to live in a small rural town and our water was 70 or more. It sucked since my husband and I barely even used any water. We moved and now it is 14 dollars a month.

    I believe the whole state is like that for us - because of mandatory fees - its ridiculous
