My and my girlfriend are considering moving to Goldsboro, North Carolina. Just trying to get a basic idea of what everything would cost as in water, electric, gas, sewer, and trash. Before we settle on a place just want to make sure everything can fall into our budget and not be takin by surprise.
From what I understand, Goldsboro isn't exactly "poppin" like Raleigh or Charlotte, so the cost of living is dirt cheap. At least from what I've seen. The guy above me gave a pretty good breakdown.

That’s assuming the OP is looking for a 1-bedroom aparment, which I kinda doubt. I agree that cost of living is dirt cheap compared to Raleigh/Charlotte, but it’s not getting any cheaper. Prices have slowly started creeping upward in recent years, though not enough to write home about. There’s been some buildup since I last lived in the area in 2009. The last time I was there was last December.
At any rate, OP is gonna need to be more specific about what kind of house or apartment he’s looking for.

Correct, but salaries there are low and the job market is non-existent.
