What is the average cost of utilities for a 1 bedroom apartment?

Answer 1

AnswerElectric bills are usually pretty small for one bedroom apartments, maybe $60; however, there are many factors that determine how much the bill will be. Some are where you live, how much electricity you use, the square footage of the apartment, etc. The best way to estimate how much your electricity might be is to talk to others who rent one bedroom apartments the size you want to rent in your area.

Answer 2

The average cost of utilities for a one-bedroom apartment will vary by location. In the southern states they are typically lower because the winters tend to be rather warmer. Of course, the summers can be hotter, but that can happen anywhere, even in Canada. This being said, the average cost of essential utilities for a one-bedroom apartment ranges from about $85 to 150 per month in the southern states, while they may climb up to $200 per month in northern states. In the northern states utilities may also include separate fuel for heating, which may be gas, oil, wood, or coal, in addition to electricity. In the South, essential utilities typically include gas and electricity, and maybe wood for fireplace.

Answer

There is no way anyone can answer your question including the Electricity Company as no two people use the same amounts of electricity. Some people leave lights on all the time, too lazy to turn them off and others do turn the lights off and the clothes dryer too.

Your electric company might be able to give you an average of what former occupants paid in a particular home/apartment of how much the average is for a particular size apartment, but costs can vary greatly from one occupant to the next and from one geographical area to the next.

This may give an idea of how much the bill will be:

My average bill is about $40 a month for electricity and I live by myself. I typically leave a few lights on and I always have my fan on 24/7..My computer runs most the time as well...

Answer 4

There are many variables involved since some people run the heat or air more than other or use more lights and appliances. Some power companies will give you an estimate if you call them. Some will not because the owner could sue if they do not rent the apartment.

Would depend on the construction and location of the apartment and your utility co rates. But in Green Bay Wisconsin it runs me about $50-$80 a month in summer for gas and elec and $160-$190 a month in the winter.
