more electricity acrobatics

So I've been taking a poll on electricity usage: (I actually sent emails out, and they were actually answered).

This is what I've got so far:

520.2 KWH/person - household "A" in Middlesex County, MA (electric stove, 2 window ACs)
375 KWH/person - household "B" in northern NJ (central AC)

I'd love to see some data from other climates... I'll have to send more emails.

315 total for three of us. No AC.

Nice... 105 KWH/person, Boston area. I think you're winning so far. Gas stove? Gas heat & hot water? or Electric everything?

Are you guys in a multi-family? If so, what floor are you on?

Thanks for letting me know! (so sad, the things that excite me)

Gas everything. But I refuse to turn the heat on until we're half frozen, so it's used only for the stove and hot water right now! We're in the middle of a three floor place, with new windows. Not that that would affect the electricity, but whatever.
