Move to a town that has a municipal owned electric company and never worry again. I did so quite accidentally 14 months ago and let me tell you it will be number one deciding factor if I ever move again. My electric was 45 bucks last month

Me too, moved 3 years ago and what a happy surprise. The low rate set over 10 years ago is not expected to change in the foreseeable future. Pushed me to replace my propane heating system to a whole house heat pump system, replace my propane hot water heater with a electric heat pump hybrid and replace my car with an EV. I’m all in and while that was a lot of capital my operating costs for energy are tiny.

Wish I could afford to buy here. But rent increases keeps taking all my budget excess.

The thing is. The industry keeps moving to "retail choice" deregulation like this. People come in and sell deregulation as "good for the consumers". Its really not though.
