Here in Maryland where I live everything is mostly electric. Including the heat. Do have LPG gas tanks as backup for the heat pumps when it really gets cold. Total electric bill on the property for the big house which the tenant pays and the garage apartment is 400 bucks a month. The garage apartment and garage only use about 125 of that. The tenant pays the rest. Think I paid $2.75 a gallon for the LPG gas. That's in my tank now. Usually one tank last all winter long. Tank is 120 gallons. Same thing at the big house. Has LPG gas back up for the heat pumps. All seems to be fairly efficient here. When I built these buildings on this property I built them with 2x6 outside walls and insulated them with R19 so I think that's made quite a difference over the years. Cable TV and Wi-Fi? That's a whole different ball game. Expensive as hell as you all know. Like 200 bucks a month here as well. But when I'm in Vietnam I turn it off. Lol
