About
Real utility cost data from real people. Built for renters and movers who want the full picture, not just rent.
The visibility problem
Rent is only part of the picture. Electricity, water, and gas can add hundreds each month, and they vary by location, property type, size, and season. Most platforms don’t show that.
This service exists to make that part of housing costs visible and comparable.
How we do it
We collect
- ZIP code
- Property type & size range
- Monthly utility total (optional electric, water, gas)
- Season of bill
We don’t collect
- Addresses or building names
- Names, emails, or identifiers
- Anything that could identify you
Submissions are anonymized and aggregated into location-specific cost ranges. More submissions mean better estimates for everyone.
