The town of Klamath Falls, Oregon has many homes heated with Geothermal Energy. Its dirt cheap once the well is drilled, just need to run the recirculating pump. The University (Oregon Tech) is completely powered (and heated and cooled) by geothermal, and sells extra power to the hospital next door. The town itself heats many sidewalks and buildings with Geothermal. But to do that, you need hot temperatures relatively near the surface. drilling gets expensive the deeper you go.
