Maybe the homes with lower electric bills are newer concrete block, have double pane low E windows and have more insulation as a standard.

This does not affect our bill but our garage ceiling is insulated and with flooring for storage as standard.

All utilities other than outdoor kitchen are electric.

We will be adding a pool heat pump so our bills will be higher in the colder months but we will not be heating the pool in the winter months.

We use the MBR fan everynight and the FR fan all day.

Hard to say why the variations in usage
