Not quite half LOL! Well, we can pay as much as $200 a month for heat in the winter if it's a particularly cold month. Anchorage is pretty moderate compared to Fairbanks & interior Alaska.
I'd love to have a summer electric bill even close to $200.
Same reason people sit in saunas. Moving about in that heat, with the humidity that almost always accompanies it here, is not a good time and will not feel very good either.

No, I mean why would you sit outside, in the heat, voluntarily?
Why wouldn't you be inside, with a fan and the AC blowing on you?
Humans weren't meant to live in Godforsaken state with its miserable weather. It's half the reason I am going back to school, a convenient excuse to get out.

Quite a few people do it here, in fact I do not think I have lived in even an apartment that has not had at least an outdoor sitting area. One's porch is a great place to socialize during the summer as long as you have a cool drink, maybe a fan, and are just sitting there. Granted I probably would not do it if it was just me, but if you get a few people together it can be quite nice.
I am the opposite with school. I ruled out a ton of schools because I have no intention of going somewhere where it is cold and overcast much of the year. Not seeing the sun throughout the winter and having snows well into April/May...now that is Godforsaken miserable weather.
