We have two 'residences' - one occupied, and one not (waiting for the ground to thaw to have it removed and rebuild in its place).
Our residence is 300-500 in the winter months; it's a 1950's bungalow with horrifically bad insulation. The empty house, with everything unplugged, water shut off, and kept at 45 degrees to keep the pipes from freezing, costs 145-160 per month -- and we're using incidental amounts of electricity. Can't wait for the furnace to be able to be turned off. I think I pay $95 even if I use zero gas and water.
