NYC apartment dwellers- how much is your light and gas?
I haven't paid utilities in about 6 years and now we are moving, I am wondering what is about average throughout the seasons, and how many bedrooms do you have? (I live in Queens if that matters) TIA

Gas in included in my rent.
I actually don't know how my utilities are so low but they range from $45-$110 in the heat of the summer. I live in a duplex 1br that is about 1,000 sq. I don't leave lights on or the AC running during the day so I don't rack up a high bill. I do have friends in the city that pay over $100 each month though, not sure why their bills are so high!

i rent in queens...a junior 4 (which is a huge bedroom and a small office space type room and a large living/dining room combo)
gas is included with rent
electric in the winter is about $75 (Dh leaves lights on and runs a computer all day long) and in the summer we have 2 ac's so its about $125 per month
edit - our apartment is about 900sq ft

Re: NYC apartment dwellers- how much is your light and gas?
Gas is also included in our maintenance fee (we own a co-op). Electric is about 50-75 bucks in the winter and close to 300 if it's a really hot summer. Our bill last month was 125 because we've been running fans a lot. Our place is 1000 sqft.
Eta: DH works from home so someone is here all day which is why the electric bills are quite high in the summer.

Gas is included in our maintenance also (co-op owner). Our electric runs anywhere from $35 a month in the winter to $150 in the summer. We have a 2 bedroom 1100 square foot apt

I paid $20 per month for gas, only for cooking. The electric was $130 with level billing.
