Keep in mind the condition of the house. Older houses, drafty and maybe poor insulation. That will jack up your bills also. I'm dealing with that now. My house is 130 years old and drafttttyyy AF

Great point. I have looked online at older homes that are updated and the first thing I think of is growing up in an old house in Ohio and having the wood floors feel like ice and seeing your breath in the morning because the heater was so inefficient.

Cool, hopefully someone who lives around there can chime in with more specifics.

I think trash and recycling are included with your local taxes there (same as in the City), so that’s a small relief.
