Our electricity varies from about $80 in the winter/spring to $180 during the hot months...but I also keep it 68 degrees in here. You can fuss at me all you want...I'm pregnant and HOT!

Water is about $30 a month.

Garbage started 2 years ago at $90 ever 4 months and has gone up to $150 every four months b/c of stinkin' fuel surcharges. We could switch to another company for a little less but ours picks up twice a week and they will literally pick up anything and they're such nice garbage collectors.

Where do you guys live that utilities are so reasonable????
We are in Texas, in a 2 bedroom duplex and ours:
electric 200-250 (possibly more in summer) we keep it on 77
water 75-80 month
phone/cable/internet 135

I Was also Thinking it all Depends on Where you live and What kind of Heat you Have-

We live In PA - and We have An electric Heat Pump / forced air - We are at MOST paying 185.00 a Month , Its very energy effecient.

Propane gas Bill For Fireplace - Cost us 485.00 For the Winter

Water- Well

Sewar - 30 month

Trash - 20.00 A Month

Yes it does depend where you live. Here in VA I pay at the most $150 for electric bill on our 3 floor home, when we lived in TX (houston suburbs) the MINIMUM was $300 a month going up to $400+ average in the summer for a 2 story house.
