Hello everyone: I am just curious how much are utility bills in Nassau this year 2012?
What company how much and how often are bills paid? I know it all depends on usage but what are some of your experiences here. ei.: Water, Electricity, Gas, etc...
Long Island has some of the most expensive energy costs in the US. Having said that, LIPA, the only source of electric on LI, is roughly $.31/kwH. For those of you who think that sounds high, run the math with the energy surcharge, taxes, fees, etc.
As far as natl gas goes, presently the main supplier is National Grid and while ng is more cost-effective than heating oil, it too is not cheap. While Natl Gas has been trading at historic lows on the commodities markets, it's trended higher as well.
Water has been steadily increasing as well, I'm about $60 for qts. 1, 3 and 4 and double that during the summer. It's still a relative bargain compared to other areas (esp. very dry areas) in the country.
For a four bedroom, two bath house in Levittown our bills were about the following
$160 monthly for LIPA on a budget plan
$3,500 for the season heating with oil (that almost made me pass out)
$30 every three months for Hicksville Water District (my favorite bill EVER!)

Wow. My house had gas for everything and my bill for an entire year was less than that oil bill. That is CRAZY.
I wonder how much of it was the boiler (old/inefficient). We're actually moving to a new house that currently has oil (planning to convert) with a much newer system. I guess we'll see.
