Comments on any of the above (temperature):
The gas bill boggles me-- and though we are very responsible, some months seem way too high. I think this is a function of house size and gas prices, not our irresponsibility.

Neighborhood & Location
Are your neighbors towns-people, students, or a mix? Mix

Comments on the neighborhood:
The house is across from the middle school so there are kids around a lot. Immediate neighbors are college kids and very very chill adults. The street itself is very quiet, but you can definitely hear the bell ring from Langston across the street.
