gohio is on a distinguished road
Smile lexington sc

Hi. My wife and I stoped in lexington early this year on our way back from fl.
Now our house is up for sale and we are looking to move to lexington. It looks like a real nice area to retire to. I do have some questions if I can get some help. I am trying to find out what the utilitie rates are like in sc. Electric ,gas ,water,sewer charges. We currently have an all electric home and geothermal heating and cooling.We live in the country so we dont pay for water as we have a well and septic. Being retired we have to think about a budget. Any help would be great, and would be greatly appreciated. And any other tid bits of information about the area. Thanks gohio

I think utility rates are about average here. I have a gas water heater and everything else is electric and my bills average about $215 a month for a 2200 square foot home. If you happen to get a house in an area serviced by an electric co-op (the more rural areas mostly), your bill would be a little less. I live in an older home so I'm sure the bills in a newer home would be less.

Mystreet, I noticed you're out in Gaston; are you served by SCE&G or one of the co-ops?

BTW, I love Palm Trees, too, especially getting borderline Palms for this USDA zone to grow in Columbia.
