Question of the day
How much do utilities cost?
Each apartment and house is different. If you are thinking about moving into a new place you can get an idea of how much your bills will be each month by calling the utility companies. Usually they can give you the highest, lowest and the average monthly charge over the last 12 months. Just be sure you know the address, including apartment number, before you call. Here are the numbers you'll need:
7878
Westar Energy (electricity) 1-800-794-610
Aquila garyssen
City of Lawrence (water & sanitation) (785) 832-
790X
Westar Energy (electricity)
Service (gas) 1-800-303-0752

That should give you some idea of what to expect.
Of course everyone is a little different and a lot depends on where you set the thermostat.
