My husband and I’s current apartment is actually up for rent! We are leaving our lease early after finding a house - all utilities are included for $2195 (except cable/internet), it has an assigned parking spot, in Wooster Square directly on the park as well, so good for walking and/or biking downtown. My husband and I shared a car our first year here actually. Let me know if you’re interested, we would love to help our realtor find the perfect people to move in!

Similar for me. I was floored when I saw the bill. Most if the cost is for fuel purchase. Thing is, this apartment is small, 2 bedroom only, but drafty as hell. LL has received info on incentives for insulation/windows, but nothing so far. Our rent is sub for this area due to a very steep driveway that most won’t accept, so we’re stuck until we buy a house… whenever that happens. Our thermostat is the older puck-type, so no C cable. I’ve been on the fence about an adjustable thermostat, but we rent.

With that lifestyle you would probably benefit from weatherizing/insulation. Working from home too - utilities are more

Your best bet is turning down at night and adding a blanket. If you are at a desk during the day, not moving around, you want to be cozy. So, when you’re sleeping might be your best opportunity. Try 69 during the day ( no pun intended, lol)
