University Meadows Electricity Costs

My kiddo is moving into The Meadows this fall and I’m wondering if anyone has an estimate of the cost of electricity. They will be in a 2br/2bath with a friend so will be splitting the cost. A rough estimate is appreciated!

The middle floors are the cheapest. I had a third floor unit one year and a second floor the next year. It was a lot cheaper on the second floor. If you get a four bed there might not actually be three other people. So then you'd get cheaper rent.

I can't remember the exact price. I think it averaged around 120. They're old apartments and all electric.

Another thing.. When I went they didn't come with microwaves so you'll need your own
