How much are your living expenses (utilites)?

Hey everyone, just curious and want to get a discussion going about how much you roughly pay for utilities, if you do so.

I'll start. These have definitely went up recently.

Electricity
$90/m Solar
$10-15 on top of that in the summer, -$10-15 in the winter

Water
$60-80/m

Gas
$10-20/m

In comparison I recently moved my primary household from a big city in California to a more rural area and that is saving me over $1000 in just those 3. Crazy difference of prices compared to the city.
Emerging from the Shadows…
Due to my job currently I’m lucky to have to pay for absolutely nothing, as accommodation came with the job.
In my country, the cost of living is quite less when compared with other countries but the wages are also less. Let me convert the price to dollars. So the price here I mentioned are all approximate values.

Electricity
$20 approx for two months

Petrol/ Gasoline
I use motorbikes and a car
$70/m approx

Food ( not counting outside dinners)
$50/m

LPG
$15/m

Internet
$15/m

Total approximately: $170 - $200 for a month. Apart from these, there are also other things we have to spend.
Since I live in the countryside, the cost of living is a little bit less. But my wage is too low.
I have to live a tight life to manage my family. If I get $600 per month, I will have some breathable place to manage it.

Right now I am the house manager at the sober house I live in so I pay no rent, utilities or anything.

I pay $65 a month for my phone, $120 a month for insurance. And then all my little side bills like YouTube TV etc etc

Fairly expensive but implying I pay to live

Everything is handed to me and I’m a baby

Drugs are the most expensive on the list

Way too much.

Money hits my account and falls straight out of it the same day.
Electricity 60-70€ / month
Gas is usually about 50€ per month, but as winter is coming I think it's gonna break my ass
Water is with Gas I guess, I don't really know how it works and I never thought about it

And my rent is 750€ per month

Utiliies 65$ for two people with S/o's not including taxes and other fees, then it's 100$

Utilities only, like $300-$350ish. a month.
Combined, I probably pay around $220 a month. It's not terribly high, but I would not complain if they cut me some slack.
Enough that I live broke but happy each day :)

Depends on the time of year but this summer when my AC was always on I had bills as high as 400 for electricity.
Space echoes like an immense tomb, yet the stars still burn. Why does the sun take so long to die?

Isn't that pretty good for a family of your size though? I have no idea to be honest with you
