Plus if you offer me a place where I don't have to pay an electricity bill, I'm able to contribute that money towards a higher rent than otherwise.

- ekianjo 10y agoI dont know where you live but in 3 different countries where i have lived till now the electricity bill was never high enough for me to take it in account for the choice of a place.
- icebraining 10y agoIn Portugal you can get a 2 bedroom condo for 300€/month, but a family of three can easily pay 50€/month in electricity alone.
- toomuchtodo 10y agoWhere at in Portugal? Curious so I can take notes as part of my "places I'd like to live for a bit around the world" notebook.
- icebraining 10y agoAlmost anywhere! The only exceptions are the more touristic centres, like the Algarve coast or Lisbon itself, but even there you can find those prices right across the river.
- toomuchtodo 10y agoThank you!
- ekianjo 10y agoOK, then that's some very cheap accomodation. Never lived in a place where you could get such a good deal :)
- icebraining 10y agoIt's not that great of a deal when you earn a Portuguese salary :)
- toomuchtodo 10y agoIn Florida, your electric bill can be several hundred dollars a month in the summer.
