tucson: We are moving in about a month. Currently we don't pay for electricity and I wanted to be able to budget. The apartment is downstairs, one story, not sure which way the windows face. It has central A/C. All appliances are electric and it has a washer/dryer. The water heater is also electric. We tend to keep our current apartment fairly cool, but plan on changing that in the new place, probably 75-80 at all times with the fans running. We have cats so we can't turn it off during the day. Any ideas as to how much it may cost to power the place? Thanks for the input!|||lets see I have 1310 sq ft and in the winter its about $90 and the summer its running $150. My place stays around 75-80 degrees|||im guessing about 120-150 a month. i live in phoenix and we had a 720 sq foot apartment and electricity was about 75 in the winter and 110-130 in the summer. we had all electric appliances too.
