Our cable is $296 and includes internet. Home insurance is 1200 for 1156 Sq ft home. Electric is $200 but with the new meters who knows. We have been here for 6 years and amenities are $193 and will go up in Nov. And don't forget the age of your roof. If it us over 12 years old, your home ensures may require you to replace it. Car insurance is $1500 every 6 months. Everything costs more than you anticipate.
