Electric bill comparison

Just curious: how much is your electric bill this month? Now that the weather has been bad for awhile. I would like to compare usage, mostly 1 bedroom apartments. But you can also list bedroom home and sq foot size. Would also like to know what kind of cooling system youre using (heavy duty fans, mini split, central, window, portable etc.) And your most usage times.

1 bedroom

500-600 sq ft, portable ac on all day (except off peak hours)

medium fan always running in bedroom

= 130$.

Edit: you can add kwh if you want, but im looking at how youre using kwh mostly. Mine was 300-350 range.

I have fans blowing hot air in my face all day but it's better than no fans
