I have Leesburg electric in Florida and it appears they don't have a daily service charge but I believe their kwh rate is higher than SECO (which works out good for me because I'm a snowbird). Up in NY I have PSEG and while their daily service fee is about $.50/day they have other fees calculated by usage (NOT taxes) that push the service fee up to over $1.00 with absolutely minimal use. However, I compared the two bills and both had roughly 1000 kwh and my Leesburg bill is almost half the PSEG bill ($135 vs $250 with taxes). I had SECO in my prior Villages home and found the rates to also be lower so I was happy then and I'm happy now with the overall electric rates here in FL.
Property taxes in NY are about 3X here in TV so all things are relative to what you may be used to paying but I find the cost of living in TV to be reasonable (especially for what you get).
