Just wondering what your electric rates per kWh are there if you don’t mind sharing.  
I see Akron is… holyfrickenfantasticallycheap.

Residential (Service Classification No. 1)  
$.0197 per kWh with a $1.84 monthly customer charge

It said however, that if you lie outside akron limits you’re not entitled to akron rates, so I’m just wondering if it’s similar or not.  
That’s a huge fucking difference compared to what I pay now (around $.13 per kWh)  
I’m closing on a house in alabama in early august, so I’m just wondering… what to expect… my taxes are only $800/yr, which I love… but now if… electric is really this low, holy frig.
